Emociones y aprendizaje, Aprendizaje permanente eficaz, Calidad, equidad y relevancia de la educación y el aprendizajeResum
Las situaciones estresantes como los exámenes pueden afectar el proceso de aprendizaje y la memoria de diferentes maneras. Sin embargo, cuando se requiere que los estudiantes analicen información nueva relevante para el examen y apliquen conocimientos a una situación nueva, tales evaluaciones pueden contribuir a reforzar las habilidades y consolidar la memoria.
