For the purposes of teaching teachers about test design, design three tests of varying complexity. For the first test use only the first level of Webb's Depth of Knowledge and first two for Bloom's Taxonomy. For the second test use the first two levels of Webb and and first four for blooms. For the final test, generate questions for all levels of Webb's and all levels of Bloom's. Make these tests on tenth grade chemistry for BC. Label each test question for what level/type it was (e.g. knowledge based, understanding based, etc.) Please also include a detailed answer key. - Your Published Testmaker Team Output
