Assessment materials misaligned with learning activities

Assessment content (OA) is misaligned with study guide, PA, and provided course materials—exam includes situational or out-of-scope questions not covered by resources.

  • I feel like a large portion of the questions had nothing to do with ethics or the content taught in the course.

  • [I swear none of the content on the study guide aligned with the content on the OA. A lot of it was situational based which was the exact opposite of the PA and *not* what was on the study guide]

  • I studied everything they give in supplemental resources, I'm also a little confused why an ethics test asked me what Cisco Certification required an in-person exam.

Unclear or ambiguous instructions and questions

Confusing or inconsistent communication and course interface about assessment format and requirements (OA vs PA, required essays/textbook); platform/mentors not updated to reflect changes.

  • [...] D333 (Ethics in Technology) is switching from an OA to a PA today [...] I logged in today and saw that it's still showing as an OA [...] I emailed my mentor [...] 'We have not had a meeting about this update at this time'. Am I missing something? I was holding off on working on this course until the change takes effect. I'm confused.

  • [...] it's saying it's a test but now I'm taking the class it just seems to be two essays and a giant fucking book? Is that all I have to do write two essays and I'm done?
