While reading the section Creating and Troubleshooting Grading Methods, When Your Test Doesn't Work, I was horrified to learn that your best advice to me was: Sometimes as you are working late into the night on an exam, the brilliance of your mind is reflected in your test questions. Unfortunately that "classic exam" of which you are so proud at 2:00 am may miss the mark when it is actually given. You can't just throw it out because from then on, your students will claim that each exam is bad and should be thrown out. What you can do is record the scores from the first exam, tell the class how disappointed you are in their scores and that you are going to give them another chance on another exam. You then rewrite the exam, review the materials with the class and give the new exam. Am I understanding correctly that the CEE suggest that I lie to my students, not take responsibility for my actions, tell them that they scored badly and then make them test again? I think that’s dishonest on so many levels.
