I had so many horrible multiple choice tests where the number of correct answers was stated and I was 100% sure that that wasn’t correct, but there was no room for additional remarks to explain my thoughts.

gandalf_der_12te@discuss.tchncs.de 2 days agoi think multiple-choice-exams are even better because they’re corrected by a machine by scanning the checkboxes and saying either “yes” or “no”. it’s 100% fair and also really effective.

Our exam system supports multiple choice and, indeed, collecting that part automatically. (We can still go through the boxes recognized as tick or blank en-masse to check for recognition mistakes.) However, they’re only allowed to make up 20% of an exam according to university-wide rules.

Multiple choice often fails to allow full demonstration of understanding, and especially at college level, that matters much more.
