| Personalized Feedback |
Personalized feedback is provided to students upon the completion of certain exams. This feedback provides students with links to areas of the curriculum that they have not yet mastered, as measured by incorrect responses to items on that exam. Proficiency Feedback can be used to guide further study, but should not be considered a comprehensive indication of which curriculum can be bypassed. Proficiency Feedback is available only in courses that are delivered dynamically. |
