Lesson 8 Discussion
This week’s lesson revolved around tests of ability and
knowledge. An often-utilized test in
this arena is the Wonderlic Personnel Test.
Prior to responding to this week’s discussion questions, please take the
sample Wonderlic provided to you in the Lesson 8 Discussion Forum Materials
folder this week. When taking the
20-item test, please follow the directions carefully in terms of time limits so
you get a feel for the actual exam.
After you complete and view your test score , please discuss in 1-2
paragraphs the following:
1. What are your
thoughts on this test? Was it more difficult/less difficult than you
anticipated? Which items did you struggle with? Did you learn anything about
yourself taking this sample test that you did not already know? (8 points)
2. For which types of jobs do you think this test would be
most useful? For which jobs would this test be least useful? Why? 7 points)
3 Points:
Postings should be
evenly distributed during the discussion period (not concentrated all on one
day or at the beginning and/or end of the period).
Postings should be
a minimum of one short paragraph and a maximum of two paragraphs.
7 Points:
Build on others’ responses to create threads. You must reply
to at least 2 other postings within each discussion board. Guidelines on how to
reply to your classmates’ posts:
Bring in related
prior knowledge (work experience, prior coursework, readings, etc.)
Try to use quotes
from the readings that support your postings. Include page numbers when you do
that.
Avoid postings
that are limited to 'I agree' or 'great idea', etc. If you agree (or disagree)
with a posting then say why you agree by supporting your statement with concepts from the
readings or by bringing in a related example or experience.
Address the
questions as much as possible (don't let the discussion stray).
