Thanks for the feedback!
I am aware of cloze questions, but haven’t used them much myself in my studies. My personal bias is that contextual awareness of word meanings is best done through massive amounts of immersion (either listening or reading). This is something we may look into after we build up a greater base of vocabulary within the curriculum.
Off the top of my head, there are a couple of problems I can see us encountering if we implement something similar:
- If it is a typed cloze question, it will require someone to switch their selected language on their keyboard every time it shows up.
- If it is a multiple choice cloze question, there may be cases where multiple answers could technically be correct. E.g., 很開心認識你 is just fine, but nearly everyone says 很高興認識你 which is ever-so-different to the point of being, like most things in language, sort of arbitrary after a certain point.
