An interesting distinction to be drawn is whether the study is done in a lab or an actual classroom. Looks like the “delayed feedback” effect described here is a lab study (Butler & Reedier, 2008).
Though it's a little long in the tooth now, Kulik & Kulik’s (1988) meta-analysis showed that delayed feedback had been shown to be more effective in lab experiments but immediate feedback better in classroom studies. Some later studies have also followed this pattern.
“Ecological validity”--it’s a thing!
That said, it’s been a while since 1988--I wonder what a meta-analysis would show today.
If anyone is interested, the Kulik & Kulik ref is:
Kulik, J. A., & Kulik, C. C. (1988). Timing of feedback and verbal learning. Review of Educational Research, 58(1), 79-97.

>In the paper, linked below, Roediger and Butler state that "[c]onventional wisdom and studies in behavioral psychology indicate that providing feedback immediately after a test is best. However, experimental results show that delayed feedback might be even more powerful" (23). They then show the results from an experiment where students who received immediate feedback after each question had better recall one week later than students who received the correct answers only after the entire exam was completed. They hypothesize that "[t]he benefits of delayed feedback might represent a type of spacing effect: the phenomenon whereby two presentations of material given with spacing between them generally leads to better retention than massed (back-to-back) presentations."
