Improved class preparation and learning through immediate feedback in group testing for undergraduate nursing students.

Purpose: A mixed-method educational evaluation project to increase learning through testing was conducted in a required senior nursing course.

Method: The Immediate Feedback Assessment Technique (IF-AT) was used to motivate preparation for optimal final examination performance. Students took multiple-choice final exams in small groups, used critical thinking and collaboration to select best answers, and then used scratch-off answer sheets indicating correct answers.
