Abstract

Tests in educational setting are often seen as an assessment tool. However, in the field of psychology, memory related studies have shown that being tested affects recall in a positive way. Studying on a material as testing rather than studying on it many times helps better to remember the information in the material. This phenomenon is called Testing Effect. It is stated in the literature that using testing effect in the field of education may have positive result. It is thought that one of the important skills that should be gained to learners is the Safe Internet Usage. The aim of this study is to examine whether the different learning conditions (Study-Study-Test, Study-Test-Test, Study-Study-Study-Test and Study-Test-Test-Test) are influential for middle school students to learn the topic of Safe Internet Use. The research results show that different learning conditions have an effect on the group's short-term retention performance but not on long term retention.
