Being Mean to Students
Posted by Nathaniel.
Is it mean if I think it’s funny? My students have weekly quizzes on Thursdays and this week’s quiz has a lot of true or false questions. The funny thing is that the answers are all false. (Or true, all one or the other, just in case some student happens to read this.)
If the trues and falses are distributed more or less evenly, you can feel good about the fact that you’re answering T to 50% and F to 50%. I think having a strong bias will really make people have to stand by their knowledge. It’ll be really interesting to see how many people switch their answers back and forth.
