This workbook is intended to support colleagues at The London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine as they seek to write appropriate Masters level examination questions and their accompanying assessment criteria and marking guidance. The booklet aims to provide clear guidance on what is expected and through the use of examples and exercises, enable colleagues to test out their own exam question writing.
It is primarily intended for those who are new to writing examination questions although more experienced colleagues may find it useful as a reference or updating source. The workbook can be used in a number of ways. For those unable to attend the „Writing Better Exam Questions‟ staff development workshop, it can act as a distance learning resource that can be worked through systematically or it can be quickly consulted to check and review current practice.
