Including a statement about the importance of Feedback

Ceckersley (talk) 04:33, 18 March 2016 (UTC) I would like to include a statement after 'to-be-remembered information' that states 'through testing with proper feedback.'[reply]

I also think it would be a good idea to include a subsection under 'Preconditions to measure the testing effect' that would talk about the impact that feedback has on correct encoding and retrieval while using the testing effect. Right now there is no mention of feedback in the article even though it is vital to the role that the testing effect can have.
