How to Assess Learning with Clarity, Precision, and Purpose
Quizzes and tests are among the most common tools in L&D—but most aren’t designed to truly assess whether learning has occurred. Poorly written questions can confuse learners, measure the wrong things, or give a false sense of competence. Good ones do the opposite: they clarify expectations, reinforce learning, and provide valid evidence of capability.
This session teaches practical strategies for writing clear, accurate, and purpose-driven quiz and test questions for workplace learning. You’ll learn how to avoid common writing pitfalls, select the right question formats for your objectives, and design assessments that align with the real skills and decisions learners need to demonstrate. Whether you’re creating a knowledge check or a scored exam, this session will help you write better questions—faster, and with greater confidence.
Ideal for instructional designers, facilitators, and anyone responsible for learning evaluation, this session will sharpen your ability to design assessments that are fair, effective, and instructionally meaningful.
