Abstract

Literature revealed that conventional pattern of scoring all items (CPSAI) at a time in essay tests had been criticized for not being reliable and this unreliability is more likely to be more in internal examinations than in the external examinations. Post-test only control group design was used. All 48 Biology teaches from 23 secondary schools in Enugu education zone were used. The researcher constructed Biology essay test (BET) with scoring guide (BETWSG) for data collection. The research question was answered using Kendal’s (w). The hypothesis was tested using t-test. The results revealed that the use of the rearrangement of the order of the papers scoring pattern (ROPSP) was found to be the most effective followed by the dividing the scoring by sessions pattern (DSSP). Conventional pattern of the scoring all items (CPSAI) was not significance.
