TRY NEW METHODS
EXAMS AT WISCONSIN
A new departure in examinations
will bo given a tryout in a class in
the elements of economics at the
University of Wisconsin. It will be
a plus and minus. This instead of
the customary essay type of exam
ination. The plan has been tried at
Columbia with success. It is ex
pected that other schools may adopt
the system.
A scrips of propositions numbering
fifty or more will be submitted to
each student. All that he will be
required to do is mark a plus or
minus sign after each proposition.
If the statement is correct the stu
dent will mark it plus. If it is in
correct he will mark it minus. Trof.
Kiekhofer said Monday, "The prop
ositions will be so worded that they
will call for a largo amount of think
ing in regard to the subject to which
they pertain,. While the proposition
will Involve a mastery of facts, stu
dents In order to score a high mark
'will have to possess the ability to
think concerning these facts."

answering it for fear of giving an

to thinking about the actual prop
osition at hand and less will be
needed for presenting the answer in
such form as to make it clear that
the student understands it. Un
doubtedly the system will be an aid
to instructors in grading, for they
will be able to tell what a student
knows about the subject without
having to wade through a mess of
irrelevant facts.
"The system has been used very
successfully in Columbia university.
As used there, each statement,
marked correctly gives credit, each
marked incorrectly counts as a
penalty, the penalty being greater,
than the credit for correctly mark
ed statement. In this way the stu
dent is discouraged from guessing
Statements which the students omit
are counted neither for nor against
them, the final grade in the examina
tion being determined by the number
of correctly answered statements."
This will be the first trial of such
a system at Wisconsin and the re
sult will be watched with interest
not only by the department of eco
nomies, but by the entire university.
