Practice Testing for Students

Season 1 | Episode 19
20m | Aug 30, 2021

A recent survey of undergraduate students revealed that 84% studied by rereading their notes or textbook. Despite its popularity, rereading has inconsistent effects on student learning. In addition, rereading does not always enhance students’ understanding of what they read, and any benefits of rereading, over just a single reading, may not be long lasting. Though rereading might be relatively easy for students to do, they should be encouraged to use other strategies when they revisit their text and notes. In this episode, Chef Roche discusses one strategy he recommends which is called practice testing.
