Fakcharoenphol, Witat; Potter, Eric; Stelzer, Timothy – Physical Review Special Topics - Physics Education Research, 2011
We developed a web-based tool to provide students with access to old exam problems and solutions. By controlling the order in which students saw the problems, as well as their access to solutions, we obtained data about student learning by studying old exam problems. Our data suggest that in general students learn from doing old exam problems, and…
