Saved a checkpoint:
This is a good question.
I've changed the titles of the films to randomly-generated ones because (a) they were a bit stereotypically boy-heavy and (b) they'll really date this question. There's also (c) are we allowed to use trademarks?

I have inverted the table and moved it into the statement and i have also added an extra part about Genre.

Chris Graham commented 7 years, 4 months ago
Can we invert the table so that "Film" and "P(Film)" are columns? Also, the table and everything above it should be the question's statement, with the part beginning "100 people..."
It's a nice straight-forward question, but you could add a little bit to this with an extra column "Genre", ie. action, comedy, sci fi etc. And then ask the student to calculate the expected number going to see a particular genre (of which there is say 2 films). Just make sure that you still have 'nice' numbers if you do this, so that the expected value comes to a whole number.

- I think the question statement should just be right at the start of the advice.
- I actually think the two parts should be completely separate questions. There are definitely enough individual questions in part b) to make it a good lengthy question with i), ii) and iii) as individual parts that can be marked separately. You can relatively easily add in another question part for part a) to lengthen it if you wanted to. Maybe something about age ratings or something.
- b)ii) I would programme in a fraction with gap fills so they can answer it like that rather than getting them to do a fraction with no fraction sign and no instruction to do it like a/b.
- I think this is a great question, and I can't find very much wrong with it at all, well done Elliott!

just a few things to comment on
- in the statement equation it says 'expected of times' which doesn't make sense
- maybe you could explain what p(film) is somewhere
- the way you have phrased '120 people buy tickets to see one of...' makes it sound like they all bought the same film ticket
- i think you can omit 'by rolling a 2 or 4' in b i as you say it twice
- in your advice for b ii you could maybe state the frequncy of outcome a bit clearer and after the equation
- maybe in your advice you could adapt it when the fraction can't be simplified to simply say it is in it's simplest form
- in advice for the last part you can omit 'using the experimental data' as you say it twice

For each combination of answer and choice, specify the number of marks to add or subtract when the student picks it.
For each combination of answer and choice, write 1 if the student should tick it, or 0 if they should leave it unticked.
Test that the marking algorithm works
Check that the marking algorithm works with different sets of variables and student answers using the interface below.
Create unit tests to save expected results and to document how the algorithm should work.
There's an error which means the marking algorithm can't run:
This is an extension type part. There is no expected answer, and it's assumed that the marking depends on interactions within the part's prompt.
You can test this part's marking algorithm by interacting with the rendering of the part's prompt below.

To account for errors made by the student in earlier calculations, replace question variables with answers to earlier parts.
In order to create a variable replacement, you must define at least one variable and one other part.

The variable replacements you've chosen will cause the following variables to be regenerated each time the student submits an answer to this part:
These variables have some random elements, which means they're not guaranteed to have the same value each time the student submits an answer. You should define new variables to store the random elements, so that they remain the same each time this part is marked.
This part can't be reached by the student.
