Answer to Question 1

A

Answer to Question 2

The advantages of using short-answer tests are that they are easy to write, students can respond to many items in a short span of time, and the student is required to recall, rather than recognize, the correct response. There are several disadvantages to using short-answer tests. First, answering this type of question does not require the student to use higher levels of cognitive processing. Second, this type of test provides no information about how well students can use the knowledge they have acquired. Third, these tests can be difficult to score.
