Description¶

Immediate Feedback Assessment Technique (IF-AT) forms are scratch-off, lottery-style cards used during the tRAT so teams "receive immediate feedback on the submitted responses." The correct answer is marked by a star beneath removable silver material; incorrect choices prompt teams to try again. This reduced the need for faculty proctors and created a fun, game-like atmosphere, with students audibly reacting as they scratched off answers.

Design Implications¶

Context¶

Requirements¶

• Faculty must scramble response items to match the pre-determined key on the ordered card version

Constraints¶

• Several card versions exist with different pre-determined keys, requiring item reordering before distribution

Target Learners¶

• first-year D.M.D. professional students

Target Learning Goals¶

• physiology content mastery
• team-based problem solving

Related Elements¶

• IF-AT (Immediate Feedback Assessment Technique) scratch-and-reveal answer-until-correct form

Examples¶

• Reduce stakes, align question difficulty with exams, and add game-like feedback when implementing TBL to lower student stress
• Team Based Learning
