The impact of lecture instruction on student conceptual understanding in physics has been the subject of research for several decades. Most studies have reported disappointingly small improvements in student performance on conceptual questions despite direct instruction on the relevant topics. These results have spurred a number of attempts to…

Safer, Alan M. – College Student Journal, 2009
Objective: To assess the outcome of late registration for college classes and early class withdrawal. Method: Computerized 2007-9 school record data on 7,200 college students were analyzed to evaluate the effect of late class registration on the class grade--relative to the average class grade--and on class withdrawal. Assessed by multiple…
