Explain the potential major problem of checklist systems that were used for examining a reading program

Question

What will be an ideal response?

Answer 1

The problem with these checklists is that the number of topics covered became the main factor in program selection. Thus, reading programs that provided only superficial coverage of critical content were given higher ratings than programs that had in-depth coverage of critical content because the former covered a wider range of content, though most of it was covered superficially.
