I often write about research studies from various fields and how they can be applied to the classroom. I write individual posts about ones that I think are especially significant, and will continue to do so. However, so many studies are published that it’s hard to keep up. So I’ve started writing a “round-up” of some of them each week or every other week as a regular feature.
By the way, you might also be interested in MY BEST POSTS ON NEW RESEARCH STUDIES IN 2021 – PART TWO.

A new meta-analysis “found quizzing enhanced exam scores by nearly half a standard deviation (g = +0.50), highlighting its power to improve outcomes. Different quizzing formats had different effects. Fill-in-the-blanks (g=+0.77), short answers (g=+0.64), and multiple choice (g=+0.57) produced relatively larger effect sizes, while free-recall produced the smallest (g=+0.24).”
