The Strategic Reason Teachers Include Clues in Exam Questions
This meme highlights the common student experience of finding the answer to one test question hidden within the text of another. Using a clip of Dash from The Incredibles running across water, the post illustrates the frantic rush to correct an earlier answer after realizing a later question provided the necessary information. A former teacher chimes in to confirm that this is often an intentional pedagogical strategy, designed to reward students who pay attention to the entire exam and to encourage the synthesis of information across different sections of a test.
@9gagwork So question 2 was the alibi the whole time and I still wrote an essay on 5?
Shitty teachers then
Sorry to spoil the beans, but as a Teacher you have no say in the test questions.
"We DiD iT oN pUrPoSe" - yeah no. Most of the teachers I knew are fucking morons. Now after graduating from uni and seeing who is left to be a "doctor" its the bottom of the barrel the worst of the wrost. If you have any brain you left.
Extrapolating missing information from other sources is an essential skill that many people so not understand or are unable to process. This is a good exercise to give students the chance to realize it.
So many students unable to see the answers...
That little activity increases the chances that you will remember that fact a lot. When your kid comes back home from school, ask him about it. Not "how it was? ok". Ask "What did you do today on mathematics, what did you do on language course, what did you do (...)". Just make h
So the students they studied enough to get question 2 on the first try get the same grade as those who got it for free? Sounds like your schools are more about testing good than learning
God bless 2nd chances
We wrote question 2 first, read it, realized it was probably too difficult for your dumb ass because lord knows you weren't paying attention when we TOLD YOU IT WOULD BE ON THE TEST, and we gave you an opportunity to redeem yourself.
