Specification (TOS)
Serves as a Test Map that guides the teacher in constructing a test.
Ensures that there is balance to those that test lower order thinking skills and those

Example: Write an appropriate synonym for each of the following; each blank
corresponds to a letter:
Metamorphose - _ _ _ _ _ _
Flourish - _ _ _ _
Metamorphose - Change
Flourish – Grow
Why? These questions require not mere recall of words but also understanding of these
words.
Guideline in the formulation of a
Completion Type of Test
1.) Avoid over mutilated sentences. Give enough clue to the student.
Example: The _______ produced by the ________ is used by the green ________ to change the
________ and __________ into ________. This process is called ________.
2.) Avoid open-ended item. There should only be one acceptable answer.
Example: Ernest Hemingway wrote:_________.
3.) The blank should be at the end or near the end of the sentence. The question must be
asked before an answer is expected.
4.) Ask question on more significant item and not on trivial matter.
Example: Jose Rizal was born on June ______, 1861.
5.) The length of the blanks must not suggest the answer. So better to
make the blanks uniform in size.
Example:
A part of speech that names persons, places or things is _________.
