First Experiences with the Introduction of Online Practice Tests at the Dr. Ambedkar School

Abstract

In addition to the right amount of time spent learning, an important element of effective learning is the right form. Testing is one of the learning methods considered by professionals to be the most effective, where pre-learning becomes an integral part of learning. This method can be implemented using an online learning platform without increasing the teacher's workload and, if the teacher has access to a bank of tasks from which to test, it is a great relief. In the Dr. Ámbédkar School for the Education of Students with Multiple Disadvantages, we supplemented traditional learning and teaching with regular online testing in the 2021/2022 school year on an experimental basis. We would like to share the experiences and lessons learned from this work.
