Gulacar, Ozcan; Damkaci, Fehmi; Bowman, Charles R. – Journal of Interactive Online Learning, 2013
While online and face-to-face (F2F) courses have been compared in numerous studies, there has been a lack of focus on online chemistry courses. This study was conducted to compare the success of students instructed in an online or F2F general chemistry course for non-majors. One hundred forty six exam questions were categorized according to…

Glass, Arnold Lewis; Sinha, Neha – Educational Psychology, 2013
In the context of an upper-level psychology course, even when students were given an opportunity to refer to text containing the answers and change their exam responses in order to improve their exam scores, their performance on these questions improved slightly or not at all. Four experiments evaluated competing explanations for the students'…

Burny, Elise; Valcke, Martin; Desoete, Annemie – Journal of Learning Disabilities, 2012
Recent studies have shown that children with mathematics difficulties (MD) have weaknesses in multiple areas of mathematics. Andersson, for example, recently found that children with MD perform significantly worse than other children on clock reading tasks. The present study builds on this recent finding and aims at a more profound understanding…

Beigneux, Katia; Plaie, Thierry; Isingrini, Michel – International Journal of Aging and Human Development, 2007
The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of aging on the storage of visual and spatial working memory according to Logie's model of working memory (1995). In a first experiment young, elderly, and very old subjects carried out two tasks usually used to measure visual span (Visual Patterns Test) and spatial span (Corsi Block Tapping test).…
