Design multiple-choice questions that require higher-order thinking. Understand the difference between 'open' and 'closed' questions and how to use open questions effectively. Vary and control the features of performance assessment tasks, including cognitive level and difficulty, to target different thinking skills. Manage the assessment of higher-order thinking within the larger context of teaching and learning." - Back cover.
