Preparation and Use of New-Type Examinations: A Manual for Teachers is a comprehensive guide designed to assist educators in navigating the shift toward objective assessment methods in the early 20th century. Written by Donald G. Paterson, this work provides a detailed exploration of the principles and practicalities behind creating effective new-type or short-answer examinations, contrasting them with traditional long-form essay exams.

The manual offers step-by-step instructions on the construction, administration, and scoring of various test formats, including true-false, multiple-choice, and completion exercises. By focusing on the scientific measurement of student achievement, the text aims to reduce subjectivity in grading and improve the reliability of classroom evaluations.
