Hi Anna: Sounds like a good process. I don't pretest all the time. When I do it to understand (usually) new students when I don't know what knowledge they have and to what degree they're functioning. Occasionally, I'll do a post test similar to the pre-test to demonstrate how far the students have come. But ususally we are are so far past those early steps, it's a bit redundant. Exception: If I sense students need encouragement, I'll pull out the original and have them retake it. That usually illuminates their progress and makes for improved satisfaction. Regards, Barry
