Hint-testing is an idea that's long over due for children who have either test anxiety or just learning disabilities in general. The idea is to get them to remember the answer without actually letting them see the anwer as in multiple choice. Some times many of us just cannot pull up the anwer from our memory and with just a simple jog of the memory it will pop up. The goal is to help improve the memory and give the students a way to remember what they are learning. A procedure to remember material is also incorporated in this program. Here is a short example of the idea.
