Tailor-made post tests (open-ended, multiple-choice and scalar items) based on the previous week's feedback episodes were given after each meeting. The article reports "the learners do remember the linguistic information targeted in the interactional feedback"; on the common test "Yoshi and Ishaque scored 100%" while "Romi scored 66%".

"The post conversation test scores showed that the learners do remember the linguistic information targeted in the interactional feedback."
