Politics self-assessment quiz from an integral perspective. I’m obsessively working on a course I’ve been trying to build for 4 years and have recently made big breakthroughs with. I’ve just completed the first draft of questions in the topic of politics.
Ideally, the way this would be scored is that people could rank all of the statements that are true for them, put as many responses as they want in a no way
bucket, and put as many responses as they want in a I don’t get it
bucket. I haven’t found a quiz builder tool that will let me build it that way yet, so in the meantime I’m using one that lets me randomize the order the responses are shown in and lets them rank the answers.
Here’s the first draft of the prompts, would love any and all feedback, support, and nit-picking!
