Learning Booster- Writing Quality Questions

Posted about 1 month ago by Emily Schwenk

Thanks for attending Writing Quality Questions a few weeks ago!

Below is a learning booster question . . it is not a “test question” so you do not have to tell me what your answer is. 

 

Read the following question and using the content from the presentation or the flashcards identify the errors.

There are many flavors of ice cream and ice cream is found in stores, restaurants and specialty shops. What are popular ice cream flavors?

a. Chocolate

b. Vanilla

c. Butter Pecan

d. all of the above 

 

Scroll down to see the answer!  You may have found additional errors as well.

 

 

 

 

Keep scrolling. . . . .

 

 

 

 

 

Errors:

  • Too wordy-used unnecessary info
  • Used all of the above
  • It is in non-alpha order
  • They are all popular flavors, therefore question itself is bad
  • Flavors means there is more than one

 

 

AND you may be wondering what the answer was. . .  according to a number of sources it is chocolate!!!
