Tests and Examinations. In the formal process of validating learning, tests can dominate because of their qualities of wide applicability across populations, low costs and high levels of perceived fairness. In general, a test is set so that candidates respond orally or in writing to present questions (and answers). A test provides direct assessment of specific knowledge and skills. It may advantage candidates with strong written and oral skills and can cause candidate anxiety. Oral tests may be used to check deep understanding of complex issues and ability to explain them in simple terms. Many tests employ a multiple choice and true or false format and many well known tests are pretested across populations so that norm referencing of responses is useful. They are considered more objective than many other methods. This type of test is well suited to being completed, marked and graded by computer. Essays can be used as test items to check the quality and standard of academic writing and use of references, ability to develop a coherent argument, and to confirm extent, understanding and transferability of knowledge and critical evaluation of ideas. Generally, essay tests are easier to prepare but testing is limited to a narrow sampling of content.
