Are you looking for new ways to assess your students, especially those that have shown to boost retention, foster peer-to-peer interaction, and reduce test anxiety? Then, collaborative testing may be for you! In this episode, Angela speaks with Dr. Maureen Rutherford, Associate Professor of Psychology at Indiana University Northwest, about her experience introducing collaborative testing into her teaching practice. Among other topics, she discusses her process, the results, and student feedback, which has been overwhelmingly positive. Also discussed is Dr. Rutherford's research on the subject, including her 2019 study, "Collaborative Quizzes: Impact on Student Performance and Attendance", which investigated the impact of collaborative quizzing on upper-level psychology students.
CTEI thanks Dr. Rutherford for her valuable insights and recommendations!
