Wakelam, Edward; Jefferies, Amanda; Davey, Neil; Sun, Yi – British Journal of Educational Technology, 2020
The measurement of student performance during their progress through university study provides academic leadership with critical information on each student's likelihood of success. Academics have traditionally used their interactions with individual students through class activities and interim assessments to identify those "at risk" of…

Yang, Nan; Ghislandi, Patrizia; Dellantonio, Sara – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2018
Quality teaching in large classes is generally challenging to achieve. In large classes, there are fewer possibilities for students to interact with the teacher and with each other; the motivation to study decreases as does the possibility for receiving feedback during the learning process. This can result, among other things, in reduced…

Russell, Jae-Eun; Andersland, Mark S.; Van Horne, Sam; Gikonyo, John; Sloan, Logan – Advances in Engineering Education, 2017
Post-secondary educators are increasingly experimenting with the possibility of blending or replacing traditional lecture-based instruction with student-centered instruction. Although some studies have been completed, much remains to be learned about when and why student-centered instruction works and the effectiveness of specific approaches. The…

Sivaram, R. T.; Ramar, R. – Journal on English Language Teaching, 2014
The present experimental study was undertaken with three objectives in view, (i) to identify students with language learning disabilities (ii) to develop CAI software to teach LD students through computer-assisted instruction and (iii) to measure the effectiveness of CAI with special reference to LD students. Two matched groups of LD students were…

Traphagan, Tomoko; Kucsera, John V.; Kishi, Kyoko – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2010
The present study investigated the impact of class lecture webcasts on students' attendance and learning. The research design employed four data collection methods in two class sections--one with webcast access and another without--of the same course taught by the same instructors. Results indicated the following four major findings. (1) The…

Titterton, Nathaniel; Lewis, Colleen M.; Clancy, Michael J. – Computer Science Education, 2010
Lab-centric instruction emphasizes supervised, hands-on activities by substituting lab for lecture time. It combines a multitude of pedagogical techniques into the format of an extended, structured closed lab. We discuss the range of benefits for students, including increased staff interaction, frequent and varied self-assessments, integrated…

Hossainy, Fakhrozaman Naeemi; Zare, Hossein; Hormozi, Mahmud; Shaghaghi, Farhad; Kaveh, Mohamad Hossain – Turkish Online Journal of Distance Education, 2012
Inability to use knowledge is one of the major problems that university graduates face. Some instructional designers recommend situated learning for the solution. The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of situated learning on students' school motivation and achievement. The two main hypotheses are: 1- Situated learning increases…

Brallier, Sara A.; Palm, Linda J.; Gilbert, Robin M. – Journal of Computing in Higher Education, 2007
The first objective of this research was to compare the demographic and academic profiles of introductory sociology students who completed Web-based courses (n = 62) to those who completed traditional lecture-based courses (n = 77). The second objective was to determine the extent to which demographic variables (age, gender, and race), academic…

Conway, Damian – 1994
The Computer Science Department at Monash University (Victoria, Australia) recently began presenting lectures using projection of a hypertext system, HyperLecture, running on a notebook computer as the primary medium. This paper presents a statistical analysis of student reactions to this approach, focusing on the effects, as perceived by the…

Post, Gerald V. – Journal of Economic Education, 1985
An evaluation of computer-assisted instruction (CAI) in economics showed that CAI does improve student scores but not significantly more than traditional assignments. Results indicated that CAI is better than just using lectures to teach economics, and that, while, CAI is not better than traditional assignments, it is not any worse. (RM)

Tsai, San-Yun W.; Pohl, Norval F. – Journal of Experimental Education, 1978
This paper discusses a study of the differences in student learning achievement, as measured by four different types of common performance evaluation techniques, in a college-level computer programming course under three teaching/learning environments: lecture, computer-aided instruction, and lecture supplemented with computer-aided instruction.…
