One of Ms. Allison’s objectives in her Civics class, is to teach her students the logic behind how government works. An appropriate assessment to determine if the students understand the logic of how government functions would be which of the following?
  1. A quiz on how government works
  2. Group-based project on government functions
  3. An explanatory essay on how government works
  4. A textbook publisher text on how government works
Explanation
Answer: C - An explanatory essay on how government works. Because Ms. Allison’s objective is to teach the logic behind government functioning, she would best be able to assess if her students understand by having them write an essay describing how government functions. If the objective were that of the textbook, then a textbook published test might be more appropriate, but in this scenario the objective is that of the teacher and the assessment should be in line with the objective of her instruction.
