Effects of Frequent Classroom Testing.
Bangert-Drowns, Robert L.; And Others
Journal of Educational Research, v85 n2 p89-99 Nov-Dec 1991
Researchers investigated the effects of frequent classroom testing on students, examining studies on adjunct questions and on mastery testing. Meta-analysis of 40 studies indicated students who took at least 1 test over 15 weeks scored one-half of a standard deviation higher on criterion examinations than did students who took no tests.
