Calling teachers and people who are creative?

Question

I have to design a test for students in high school to take. The test is on terms. Any creative ideas?

Please not just multiple choice, matching, or fill in the blanks. I have all of that boring, standerdized test stuff already

Answer 1

One idea that kind of sticks out to me is playing Jeopardy! I know that it sounds weird but some of my teachers did that when I was in high school!

Another thing that you could do is tell your students to study really hard! Then on test day, give them a piece of paper and tell them to write down 20 things (or something that goes into 100 easily so it is easier to grade) that they learned from the chapters they studied!

Answer 2

Individual mind map. Instead of matching displayed terms students should make map showing terms by their importance and their relations. You can set task with one or just few terms, or neither, so students must do their best to show what have they learned, also, how have they learn that. This is thankfull for evaluation after.
Another example, everyone pulls out of the box one/few terms and have to describe it within given time.

Answer 3

First, are you talking about terms as word definitions or terms in math? Do you want the test simply to evaluate their skill, or to try to teach them something in the process?
