Stimulus MaterialsModule Overview • Define the purpose of stimuli • Identify types of stimuli • Apply general guidelines to createstimuli
Different Parts of an Item STEM The question to which the student must respond. STIMULUS The text, source, and or graphic aboutwhich the item is written. OPTIONS The possible answers from which thestudent must select.
Examples of Stimuli • Which of the numbers is • A factor of 100. • A multiple of 5. • 4 • 40 • 50 • 500 The table below shows the number of students in each third-grade class at Lincoln School. Students in the Third-Grade There are 105 fourth-grade students at Lincoln School. How many more fourth-grade students than third grade students are at Lincoln School? Show your work or explain how you know.
Given: (x + 4)2 – (x – 2) (x + 4) Select all the expressions below that are equivalent to the given expression. 24 2(x + 4) –2(x – 12) 6(x + 4) (x + 4) – (x – 2) (x + 4) [(x + 4) – (x – 2)] STIMULUS STEM OPTIONS
Which of the following equations have the equivalent to zeros? (Select all that apply.) STEM OPTIONS
Appropriate Presentation • Only use necessary graphics • Formatting techniques can be used to present important information
