OPEN…BOOK TESTING
By Kay Burke; Ph。D。
WHY IT MAKES SENSE
Educators who allow students to take open…book tests are not teaching for the test; they
are teaching for understanding。 Most students agree that open…book tests are more
challenging than traditional objective tests because they require high…order thinking
skills rather than recall skills。
The greatest benefit from open…book testing may be that it encourages the type of
thinking that will benefit students in the real world。
。 Open…book tests focus on students learning important concepts rather than
memorizing facts。
。 They encourage students to utilize the lifelong learning skill of “accessing
information” rather than memorizing data。 In most jobs; people do not have to
memorize formulas or discrete bits of data; they have to know how to find the
important information they need in order to solve problems and plete projects。
。 Open…book tests encourage students to highlight the text and organize their notes so
they can find the information they need。
。 Open…book tests encourage students to apply the information they have learned and
transfer it to new situations; rather than just repeat the facts。

TEACHING THE INTRODUCTORY COURSE
LAYING THE FOUNDATION FOR A WELL
ORGANIZED COURSE
Most of us have experienced at least one truly exciting; memorable course with smoothly flowing lectures
neatly tied together by threads of conceptual continuity; audiovisual presentations that began on time and
kept every student alert even though the lights were out; reserve readings that were actually available in the
library; and demonstrations that brought a thrill of discovery into the classroom。 Such superb educational
experiences do not erupt spontaneously from mystical qualities found in a few gifted teachers。 To make
them possible; certain basic ingredients must be assembled and organized well before the first class meets。
We present here a systematic planning guide to preparing for the introductory course。 The methods could
be applied to just about any other course as well。 For starters; a list of suggested administrative tasks and
teaching aids should help make course preparation efficient and even pleasant。 As you organize your
course; an essential notion to bear in mind is that small things done at just the right time can be crucial both
in preventing major difficulties and in creating the conditions that turn an adequate course into a rich
encounter with a new world of ideas and information。 The time sequencing suggested here should not be
taken lightly。 It is intended to maximize your access to first…choice resources and allow a fortable
margin for creative responses to unexpected contingencies。
GOALS OF AN INTRODUCTORY PSYCHOLOGY
COURSE
Introductory psychology is designed to present a broad view of the discipline and is generally a prerequisite
for all subsequent courses in the curriculum。 The first step is to determine your goals for this course。 What
do you intend to acplish? In what ways would you like this course to contribute to your students’
education? Walker and McKeachie (1967) offer these goals for introductory psychology:
。 municate elementary concepts
。 municate facts in support of concepts
。 Introduce the student to the full range of subject matter
。 Integrate course material
。 municate basic attitudes of the discipline
。 municate the intrinsic interest of the subject matter
。 Present the newest developments in the field
。 Provide individual guidance and monitoring
。 Develop selected intellectual skills
。 Provide a suitable identification model for the students
THREE MONTHS BEFORE THE FIRST CLASS
MEETING
DRAFT A WORKING SYLLABUS DETAILING THE FOLLOWING:
。 The sequence of topics to be covered; with approximate time blocks allocated to each
。 Readings to be assigned for each topic
。 New lectures you plan to prepare; with a brief summary of major points to be included in each
。 Old lectures you want to improve
。 Demonstrations and discussions you expect to conduct
ii
。 Guest speakers you hope to schedule; with alternates in case your first choices are unavailable
。 Films and other audiovisual aids; with their intended use (e。g。; films will be scheduled for class
time; while some audio and video tapes may be put on reserve in the library and remended
in conjunction with appropriate topics)
FINALIZE COURSE PLANS
Finalize the syllabus except for specific dates for guest lecturers not yet mitted and other details yet
unknown。 It is OK to note that plans for some class periods are “in preparation。”
ONE TO TWO WEEKS BEFORE THE FIRST CLASS
。 Confirm that texts have been received by the bookstore and that reserve readings will be
available。 Check for yourself。
。 Review all class materials and be sure that they are in fact duplicated; satisfactory; and located
where they can be found when needed。
。 If any uncertainty remains about audiovisual materials or items needed for demonstrations;
send out final orders and adapt your plans accordingly。
。 Finalize the syllabus and have it duplicated on three…hole paper in a quantity about 25 percent
larger than your anticipated need (students often take more than one)。 Also; distribute copies to
your colleagues。 They need to know what you are doing in the basic course if it is a prerequisite
for their courses; and they may well have ments and suggestions you will find valuable。
THE FIRST CLASS
DON’T TALK ABOUT PSYCHOLOGY: SHOW ME
Introductory psychology differs from other classes because the students will be able to relate to much of the
material on a personal level。 As you explain to the students that this psychology course speaks to
contemporary personal and social issues; you are on the spot to show them rather than just proclaim it。
Starting the class with a demonstration can be a first…day relief to both you and your students。 If you start
the class with a brief “Candid Camera” film or a demonstration of the kind outlined in the Experiments
and Demonstrations section of this manual; you are not talking the whole time; and you and your class
together are relating to the same material。 For the students; a demonstration will be a wele relief from all
of their other first…day…of…the…term courses; which typically are “very talky” and full of logistics。 To avoid the
latter; e early and follow these guidelines:
。 Post on the blackboard your course title; the course number; and your name。 Also note on the
board: “Please look over the syllabus; we will discuss it at the end of the class hour。”
。 Arrange to have the syllabus distributed at the entrance to the classroom; with extra copies
available at the front and rear of the room。
。 Do not begin the course with a proclamation of the usual details about course organization。
These details are in the syllabus。
。 Avoid the “Psychology Is a Science” routine; so typical in many first classes。 It makes you
defensive; often antagonizes some “hard science” majors; and is unnecessary。 Students should
discover the scientific foundations of psychology through their reading and your general
exposition。
For a demonstration to be especially suitable for the first class; it should be intrinsically intriguing; require
no advance knowledge by students; and be a take…off point for introducing some of the basic questions of
psychology。 Several of the demonstrations suggested in the Experiments and Demonstrations section of
this manual fit these criteria。

KEEP ANTICIPATING YOUR NEEDS
GUEST LECTURERS
Contact a guest seven to ten days before his or her presentation date。 Send written confirmation of the date;
time; topic; and directions to the classroom if needed。 Speak to the guest personally: Ask about equipment
needs and for ments for your introduction。 Provide the guest with a copy of the syllabus; an idea of
what you have covered related to the topic; the level of sophistication of the class; and any special
classroom procedures you follow。 Announcements of visitors expected to be of general interest should be
posted for your colleagues’ information as well。
DEMONSTRATIONS
The major virtue of a demonstration or class experiment lies in making one point; or a few points; in a vivid;
memorable form。 Other virtues are generating greater class interest with a more varied format; seeing
psychology in action; and building up a reserve of “can’t miss” demonstrations you can rely on term after
term。 Neverth
