Idiocracy is here.
This is only acceptable is the purpose is to provide practice questions that do not count for credit. Just like it is a good idea to provide answers to practice questions at the end of the book (sometimes printed upside down).
Of course, to be useful as a learning tool, the answers to such practice question must include an explanation of why, say, (c) is a better answer than (a), (b), and (d).
So, set up practice questions in Google forms, put actual answers/explanations on a web page for students to learn.
You can still do exams in Google forms ... Just don't leave the grading to Google forms. Instead, grade asynchronously.
Again, that would be actual work, so, no leave everything to Google, and accuse students of cheating and take away `view-source`. Right. That's what things have come to.
- daviddever23box 5y agoIf you can view the answers in view-source, that's a failing grade for the test writers, whether it's Forms or any other tool. Fail the teachers, pass the students smart enough to discover this (or, more well-versed in technology than those tasked to teach them). Unacceptable capitulation to poor educational quality.
- YXNjaGVyZWdlbgo 5y agoThe problem is that there are no platforms from the government or states. Schools or I bet individual teachers have to find a solution for themselves. There are solutions out there some cost a lot of money and some are just not easy to deploy. This is systemic and not anything we should put on teachers or individuals that have no chance to change the shitty work environments they are in.
- chromanoid 5y agoI totally agree. After 30h of teaching, (depending on the teacher) around 10h to 40h of preparation per week I don't see any room for dealing with shitty software problems. Simple cheap solutions directly benefit the children.
