Cifuentes, Lauren; Hsieh, Yi-Chuan Jane – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 2004
This mixed-methods study explored the effects of student-generated visualization on middle-schoolers' science concept learning. We compared students who visualized during study time with those who did not and found that visualization as a study strategy led to students' improved test performances (p=.02). However, middle schoolers' scores on a…
