Boetje, Josien; van Ginkel, Stan – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2021
Developing oral presentation skills is an essential objective of higher education. While previous research emphasized the importance of practice for developing oral presentation skills (OPS), it remains unclear what the optimal amount of practice is. This experimental field study examined the added benefit of an extra practice session in virtual…
