Wang, Jen-Hang; Hsu, Shih-Hsun; Chen, Sherry Y.; Ko, Hwa-Wei; Ku, Yu-Min; Chan, Tak-Wai – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2014
The study proposed a mix-mode peer response, the E-Peer Response (EPR), to overcome the bias of a single mode, and examined how students with different levels of ability react to the EPR. Two classes participated in this study. One was the experimental group (EG) with the EPR; the other was the control group (CG) with a teacher-centered writing…
