What is In-basket exercise?

In-basket is a more intuitive online version of traditional in-tray exercise. It provides a simulated interface where participant needs to go through the reading information to comprehend the context and then submit the written responses for emails in the simulated email inbox.

It is a time-bound exercise where the participant gets a specific time limit to read the information and respond to the emails. There is a separate time limit for both reading and responding to emails.
