''Should Cheat Sheets be Used as Study Aids in Economics Tests?'' |
( 2002, Vol. 1 No.1 ) |

This paper reports an experiment that investigates the effectiveness of cheat sheets as study aids for economics tests. A cheat sheet is a piece of paper that students can write anything they want on and use during a test. I find that both preparing and using a cheat sheet improves students' test performance. Additionally, there is no evidence that students become over dependent on their cheat sheets for answers. |
