Hi Everyone,

After reading Dianne's concern about the sharing of questions between 
different sections of the same class, I thought I'd offer an idea.

I have stopped handing out test papers and instead do all of the 
questions on ppt slides.  I think it's much easier to keep the questions 
secure, since it's unlikely that a student would go to the trouble of 
memorizing all of the questions to pass on to another group.  I believe 
it was Dean Parmelee that shared with me how very careful they are about 
keeping their MCQs secure at his institution.  You can then make a bank 
of your questions and mix them up in years to come.

I would still do the IF-AT variation and mixing up of the order of the 
questions with different sections.

Christine
