To keep students from missing scheduled test, my make up test are 50 fill in the blank, essay, or all true false. I hardly ever have students that want to take make up test. All students are told about make up test the first day of class.

Pre-testing

when it comes to testing on the surgical instruments for ST program, I always have an open lab and student on student tutoring before test days. This helps my students perform better when it's test day.

class ideas

sometimes to get the class focussed back to the classroom, I ask them how would they like for me to test on the material and ask them to write down questions they would have me use for the test
