N2 - Micro-testing is a complementary assessment strategy that involves students sitting a confirmatory 10–12 minute in-class test to verify their understanding of a take-home assignment—such as a report, essay, or briefing note—that they have submitted. In the presence of generative AI, this disarmingly simple teaching intervention helps to mitigate the issue of inflated marks in coursework assessments and, in repeated use, aligns incentives—encouraging students to engage in deep learning activities.
