    Objective Test

    Objective type test items are highly


    structured test items. The answer of the
    item is fixed. It requires the pupils to
    supply a word or two or to select the
    correct answer from a number of
    alternatives.

    Simple Recall Type of Test
    It is the easiest type to construct among the
    Objective type of test because the item appears
    as a direct question, a sentence, word, or phrase
    or even a specific direction.
    The response require the examinee to recall
    the previously learned lessons and the answers
    are usually short consisting of either a word or
    phrase.

    Rules and Suggestions for the Construction
    of the Simple Recall Type of Test
    1. The test items must be so worded that the
    response is brief as possible or there is only one
    correct response.
    Example:
    Poor:
    • What do we call the force of the water?
    Better:
    • What do we call the upward force exerted by the
    water?
    Philippine Normal Nurturing Innovative Teachers & Education Leaders
    UNIVERSITY pnu.edu.ph
    2. The direct question is preferable
    than the statement form.
    Example:
    Poor:
    • In measuring the hotness and coldness of
    the atmosphere, we use ____________
    Better:
    • What do we use to measure the hotness
    and coldness of temperature of the
    atmosphere? ____________
    Philippine Normal Nurturing Innovative Teachers & Education Leaders
    UNIVERSITY pnu.edu.ph
    3. The length of the blanks for answers should be
    equal in size and in a column to the right of the
    question:

    Example:
    Poor:
    • What is the total number of chromosomes in human cell? ____
    • What is the power house of the cell? _________________

    Better:
    • What is the total number of chromosomes in human cell?
    _________________
    • What is the power house of the cell? ______________

    4. Make a minimum use of textbook language in
    wording the question.
    5. When the answer is a numerical unit the type of
    answer wanted should be indicated.
    Example:
    Poor:
    • What is the normal body temperature of human
    being?
    Better:
    • What is the normal body temperature of human
    being in a degree Fahrenheit?

    tested but have difficulty in recalling the exact
