What are test questions?

Answer 1

In any subject or skill area (such as a driving test), knowledge and skills must be measured. In some situations, personal decision-making and common sense must also be assessed (such as in nursing school). Test questions allow a way to test a variety of factors that represent "learning" and the learning that a person has retained.

We are all introduced to tests and test questions early on. In grade school, simple math questions might just be 0+1= or 1+1= . As students learn and progress through grades, test questions become more challenging and/or complicated. By middle grades, logic and common sense become entwined into testing, for example the word questions asking students to apply math theories to real life situations. Questions continue to apply basic skills and to expand upon them.
