Abstract

Post-test reviews can play an important role to develop students' cognitive thinking, allow for self-reflection of test preparation and test practices, and improve student success. The question is whether the benefits for students' learning, self-confidence, and lower anxiety levels outweigh the time and effort. Negative experiences associated with students using it as an opportunity to improve grades, and questioning the integrity of the instructor, have led to instructors not doing test reviews at all. The presentation describes how post-test reviews can be successfully used to enhance teaching and learning.
