I recently used the halfback method with the students in my Experimental Methods class on their first exam. They received half the credit back on their exams by not only telling me what the correct answer was but why it was the correct answer and why it is an important concept. The students really appreciated the opportunity and learned something at the same time. I did, of course, tell them that they would not receive the same opportunity on the next exam.
