How To Organize Materials For An Exam

Exam: Should test a student’s knowledge. Not what they memorized, but what they understood with their own way of thinking, and words.

  1. Put together the exam.

First put together everything you want to include in the chapter. Make sure it is done in a frame: has everything from beginning to end.

Then plan your lessons according to what you want in the exam, not the other way around. Many teachers mess up this. They abstractly, with no plan start to give lessons, and expect students to have a correct big picture from the many different little pieces. Without structure, it won’t make sense.
