The Value of Time Limits on Internet Quizzes
Brothen, Thomas; Wambach, Cathrine
Teaching of Psychology, v31 n1 p62-64 Feb 2004
This study evaluated 15-min time limits on 10-item multiple-choice quizzes delivered over the Internet. Students in a computer-assisted course in human development spent less time on quizzes and performed better on exams when they had time limits on their quizzes. We conclude that time limits are associated with better learning and exam performance because they reduce the opportunity to look up answers in lieu of learning the material.
