Abstrakt: Background: Metacognitive knowledge and regulation are critical to nursing students who must apply knowledge to rapidly changing and complex conditions. Exam wrappers assist learners to consider past study habits with the goal of improving future exam preparation. However, little is known about use of exam wrappers in nursing education.
Purpose: The purpose of this integrative review was to describe the disciplines, populations, courses, specific strategies, and outcomes of the exam wrapper strategy.
Methods: A systematic literature search of peer-reviewed publications was completed in any discipline using exam wrappers.
Results: Ten academic disciplines of primarily introductory students completed exam wrappers with positive effects on course and exam grades, as well as metacognition, and noted changes in future study habits.
Conclusions: The exam wrapper strategy has been successfully implemented with improvements in course and exam grades, levels of metacognition, and changes in future study habits.
Competing Interests: The authors declare no conflicts of interest.
