Test Feedback Class Sessions: Creating a Positive Learning Experience
Kher, Neelam; Juneau, Gayle; Molstad, Susan
College Teaching, v50 n4 p148-150 Fall 2002
Returning tests following an examination is often a difficult task for the instructor, particularly in courses that are perceived by students as anxiety producing. The purpose of this article is to offer suggestions for designing this class session so that students view it as a positive part of the learning process. The four phases suggested for this feedback session are (a) preparing the students for receiving test feedback, (b) implementing a strategy for returning tests, (c) selecting an approach for reviewing test items, and (d) bringing closure to the class a positive way. Young professionals lacking the experience to anticipate problems when returning examinations to students may especially benefit from these suggestions.
