Interteaching is a behavioral teaching method that has demonstrated efficacy in higher education. Of particular interest is the use of a preparation guide (a guided reading assignment), which is designed to promote engagement in the other areas of the interteaching process. The present study compared the use of a preparation guide completed before the start of class with that of a quiz administered at the start of the class. The quiz was hypothesized to serve as a functional alternative to the preparation guide. A total of 38 undergraduate students enrolled in an Introduction to Psychology course participated in this study. The primary dependent measure was student performance on tests following each condition. The analysis revealed no statistically significant difference between the conditions, F(1, 302) = 0.103, p = .748, though qualitative feedback revealed student preference for preparation guides. Future research is necessary to examine the effects of quizzing while addressing the limitations of this study.

评估准备指南在互教与测验替代方案中的使用

交互教学是一种在高等教育中已证明有效的行为教学方法。特别令人感兴趣的是准备指南（引导阅读作业）的使用，该指南旨在促进对交互教学过程其他领域的参与。本研究比较了开课前完成的准备指南与开课时进行的测验的使用情况。假设测验可以作为准备指南的功能替代品。共有 38 名心理学导论课程的本科生参与了这项研究。主要的相关衡量标准是学生在每种条件下的测试中的表现。分析显示，条件之间没有统计学上的显着差异，F (1, 302) = 0.103，p  = .748，尽管定性反馈显示学生对准备指南的偏好。未来的研究有必要检验测验的效果，同时解决本研究的局限性。
