As one in a series of test item collections developed by the Assessment and Evaluation Unit of the Directorate of Studies, items of value from past tests are made available to teachers for the construction of unit tests, term examinations or as a basis for class discussion. Each collection was reviewed for content validity and reliability. The test items meet syllabus content and aims best suited to multiple choice questions, but teachers are meant to base the use of the test items on student ability and the particular program objectives. Minerals and energy resources and demand in Australia and the world are presented in volume six of the geography test items. Mineral exports, mining, and the aluminum/bauxite, coal and iron ore industries are covered. Test items are also concerned with oil, gas and uranium supplies. Answer keys are provided with test construction guidelines. Tables, maps and diagrams illustrate many items. (CM)
