Total does make more sense. I've made the change to total. Thanks, Scott!

Could it be argued that the goal be for all students to score 100%

desired content?
That is precisely my goal when I elaborate exams. No success so far ;o)

No, students are not receiving a hard A or an easy A. I make no
classifications
Damon,
Thank you for your thoughtful response. In terms of the Python tests, I
as well would hope that all my students (13- to 15-years-old) could answer
questions based on the content shared - kind of in the spirit of the

Hello Laura,
That's better than the Abstract Algebra class I took as an
undergraduate. The highest score on Test 1 was 19%. I got 6%! I retook
the class from another teacher and topped the class. Liked the subject

To elaborate on the statement above a bit, we did drill-and practice
teaching (and had students loving it). The value of the 80% is for
maximal learning. Something like 50% is the best for measurement theory

I tweaked it now where all other browsers and OS combinations can access

OK, thanks. Worked with no problems.
As an administrator, I'd be curious to get the actual text of missed
problems (maybe via URL), not just
dissertation. By expanding
the question bank, I'll be able to reach that goal.

Hey folks!
Lindel Grandel and I have been working on some Python questions for
potential use in high schools, college, and employment. If you are
interested in taking one of the online tests go to
http://www.adaptiveassessmentservices.com and self-register to take one of
two Python tests: one
In my opinion, you would get more responses if the testing system
accepted a browser/OS combination other than IE/Windows

Similar comment. I'm on Windows but don't want to be tested by a service
that won't let me use FireFox. I have tests too.
