THE QUIZ, KNOWLEDGE OF RESULTS, AND INDIVIDUAL DIFFERENCES IN ACHIEVEMENT ORIENTATION.

Abstract

The quiz and knowledge of results on the quiz have generally been found to be effective in enhancing classroom learning. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the effect of quizzing on achievement, with or without feedback. In three experimental sections quizzes were given immediately after the lesson; in three other sections quizzes were given the day after the feedback. The three conditions being used were: correct answers being given immediately; correct answers given day after the quiz; and only the number of correct answers given to the student the following day. There was also a control section. (Author)
