| Abstract: | An alternative way for testing a student's understanding of theory in a tertiary mathematics course is presented. Two sample questions are provided and advantages and disadvantages of the method are discussed. We argue that the method is an acceptable and flexible means of testing students, and can be adapted to be used in other contexts as well. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date. |
