Rationale Revolution: Use of Exam Wrappers to Deliver Test Item Rationale and Performance Feedback

Monday, July 22, 2024
8:00 AM – 8:30 AM East Coast USA Time
Location: Hynes: 310

Learning Objectives:

At the completion of this activity, participants will be able to:
  • List the benefits and challenges of using exam wrappers to provide item rationale and performance feedback following multiple-choice assessments.
  • Determine the optimal course and assessment design that may benefit from implementation of exam wrappers.
Reflecting on examination performance can improve student learning. However, faculty may be hesitant to return examinations due to concerns for test security. Exam wrappers are a metacognitive tool that can be used with exam reviews to improve reflection on examinations. This session will describe the implementation of exam wrappers within an integrated course series. Participants will learn the benefits and challenges of exam wrappers and determine how to implement exam wrappers at their institution.
