Central to the study was a controlled experiment, which contained experimental and control groups both instructed by the same…

Current study aimed to examine the effects of web-based instructional material enriched by concept maps, the academic achievement of 7th graders in "Structure and Properties of Matter" unit. The study utilized a quasi-experimental model with pretest-posttest control group design. A sample of the study was composed of 58 students.…

Computers and computer-assisted instruction are being used with increasing frequency in the area of undergraduate paramedic education. Paramedic students' attitudes towards the use of e-learning technology and computer-assisted instruction have received limited attention in the empirical literature to date. The objective of this study was to…

Because of a shortage of physical exercise, concerns about adolescents have recently been raised in Taiwan. In educational environments where student exercise has been limited by scheduling constraints and the lack of physical exercise has become a vital problem, "learning while exercising" may be part of a possible solution. This study…

The aim of this study was to compare the effects of computer-based learning and traditional method on students' attitudes and achievement towards analytical chemistry. Students from Chemistry Education Department at Dokuz Eylul University (D.E.U) were selected randomly and divided into three groups; two experimental (Eg-1 and Eg-2) and a control…
