Which of the following formative assessments is most likely to promote cognitive change?
 
  a. A multiple-choice exam because it allows the learner to compare the correct answer with misconceptions.
  b. A fill in the blank exam because it allows the learner to generate their own knowledge.
  c. An oral exam because verbal explanation allows the learner to expand on their ideas.
  d. A written report because the tactile experience allows the learner to solidify their knowledge.

Question 2

Many of Mr. Henry's students have heard from family or friends that global climate change is a hoax perpetuated by certain politicians and policy makers. Mr. Henry is trying to convince them that, in fact, the earth's overall temperature is slowly rising and that, furthermore, the change is at least partly the result of human activity. The approach most likely to be successful in promoting conceptual change about climate change is to:
 
  a. Present both sides of the debate but discredit the hoax arguments
  b. Present only the climate-change-is-real side of the debate
  c. Explain that advocates of the hoax perspective have no credibility in the scientific community
  d. Remind students that future generations will ultimate pay the price for this generation's refusal to accept that climate change is real
