Description

The CSTPP is organized around a continuous improvement cycle in which students self-test, receive a diagnosis of subject-specific weaknesses mapped to each item in the question pool, and receive targeted remediation through answer explanations and short teaching videos before retesting. As the article states, "The entire learning process involved an uninterrupted cycle of Test, Diagnose, and Remedy, forming a progressive improvement learning process." Stronger students spend less time in the remedy stage and progress at their own pace, while weaker students build confidence by repeatedly addressing weaknesses across cycles.
