Peer reviewedEsiobu, Gladys O.; Soyibo, Kola – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 1995
Verified the efficacy of concept and Vee mapping heuristics under cooperative, cooperative-competitive, and individualistic whole-class learning conditions in improving (n=808) eighth graders' achievement in ecology and genetics. Experimental groups achieved significantly better than the control groups; students in cooperative-competitive…
