parents. It can manifest in many different ways. Test anxiety if left untreated can be debilitating for the student. As a teacher, we should foster a safe environment for students to learn. If a teacher could change simple teaching techniques could it lower student test anxiety? Are there coping mechanisms that can be taught to a student that can be used successfully during high anxiety testing situations? The purpose of this study is to test various teaching techniques and coping…

Therefore, a considerable amount of cross-disciplinary research has been conducted to test whether MC items assess the same level of students’ understanding as constructed response questions (Becker & Johnston, 1999; Bible, Simkin, & Kuechler, 2008; Kuechler & Simkin, 2003; Simkin & Kuechler, 2005). In particular, Bible, et al., (2008) looked at tests with both MC and constructive response questions to evaluate students’ understanding of accounting. They recognized…

While in the other hand, the other people are nervous and stressed on what is going to be on the test or even just the score they will earn. The way I approach tests is with confidence because a person should never doubt themselves no matter what type of situation you are in. In addition, I always say to myself “If I pass I pass if I fail well then try again”. My…

Students who attend class often receive better grades on tests for they are present the day the material was taught.
