You need to design a new test that will score children’s intelligence accurately. You know that the age group you are testing does not have a long attention span, but they are fans of certain cartoons. What could you do that would go along with Dr. Ceci’s thoughts?

Answer:

model the questions around the cartoons

Step-by-step explanation:

IN order to 'trick' people with short attention span into focusing on something, mixing the content with the things that they are genuienly interested in tend to do the tricks.

For example, let's say that those children are fanst of Bobby the bird cartoon. Dr. ceci could include bobby the bird in all forms of tests (could either as a background or as a character in the written problem) in order to maintain the subject's attention.
