This test may have a higher chance of receiving a reward. Nominated for:

1. Educational explanations. 👍 Explanations cover why the correct answers are correct and why the wrong answers are wrong (when appropriate). E.g.: #q29, #q1, #q3

2. Step-by-step approach to teaching. 👍 E.g.: #q3, #q7, #q15, #q26, etc.
As far as I understand, "step-by-step approach to teaching" means that questions are ORDERED in such a way that learning will be as good as possible. But shuffle questions mode in this test is on. How is it possible that this quiz nominated for "step-by-step approach to teaching"? What do you think, Giant Elk?

C D "Step-by-step approach" means the quiz covers, for example, the units or chapters, or some certain ways of learning something from the bottom to the top. And for this specific quiz, the questions cover the first four chapters of a book followed by other quizzes that cover next four and so on. "Step-by-step approach" applies to the whole quiz (which is by the way the same as other quizzes in this contest having this nomination), not to the questions i believe.
Ace Gnu But you have not written a quiz in which there would be a continuation of this quiz (next chapters of a book). When you will write, then you can talk about step-by-step, but not yet. According to your logic, all quizzes have step-by-step approach to teaching because each quiz checks knowledge in some specific topic, not in all that humanity knows.
Thus, the quiz cannot pretend to be step-by-step approach for the following reasons:
1. All the questions in it are mixed, questions are asked not from simple to complex, but randomly.
2. The quiz is the only one, it has no continuation, which means there is no development either, i.e. no step-by-step approach.

C D From the looks of it, I see you still did not get the point of what I have said. Therefore, I am going to go to your reasons straightaway without doing too much of unnecessary talk.
1. Once again, "Step-by-step approach" has nothing to do with the question order of this quiz. Someone who is willing to check his knowledge, for sure, would expect the questions to be mixed, not just showing them the exact page or smth. The description "...covers first four chapters" speaks a lot itself. And in terms of "simple to complex", i did not make them being some simple, and others complex. They are all of the same difficulty level. And reading the description, one would simply understand that this quiz is not for everyone, but only for those who are majoring in Economics. It would seem not logical not to mix the questions.

2. And yes, you are very right to say the quiz is the only one in this present contest. But are you aware that there are other parts of this contest coming soon? I made the quiz and wrote in the description that it covered first four chapters implying that there would be others too. We are not in the movies to say "... to be continued", are we? I made other different quizzes as well, and we are all human beings with some time limits that we may not fulfill the needs as we want them. And knowing that there would be more of this contest soon, are not you afraid to do such a rough assumption saying "there is no development" which in the end would be wrong anyway. Since you are so interested in my quiz (i hope you are), i here can assure you that there would be quizzes covering the remaining chapters too in the next part of the quiz contest, do not worry about it.

P.S. I respect your effort writing these comments of course, but we are all working hard here for the sake of this platform, to make it all accessible. I believe even the judges are working hard to bring the best out of this contest. And your words stating these minor issues (which i hardly think can be called an issue), and some assumed thoughts which are highly going to be wrong deliver nothing but only negativity. I am not speaking on behalf of the judges, these are all my viewpoints. I hope you understand. Should you have any other question (other than these two reasons you mentioned), feel free to ask. I would be happy to answer.
Thank you.
