This item: multiple-choice questions for an Advanced Placement practice exam in chemistry. This is an example of my specialized content knowledge in chemistry. It also shows close alignment with the standards and exam formatting prescribed for Advanced Placement courses by the College Board.

Client: an after-school tutoring company.

Learners: high school students in an Advanced Placement Chemistry course.

Project: freelance assistance to a small staff updating in-house practice tests. Materials were briefly proofread by a staff member before being distributed to students.

My role: I was tasked with correcting and updating a five-year-old practice exam that needed realignment to current College Board course standards, recalibration to achieve the correct difficulty level, and corrections to the science. I analyzed the original material and was able to retain about 50% of it unaltered, revised about 30%, and replaced the remaining 20%. The excerpts here are new items I created, including their embedded teacher’s guide.
