Lifshitz, Nirit; Har-Zvi, Shirley – Early Childhood Education Journal, 2015
Proper acquisition of handwriting is required for success in school. This study compared the effects of two writing readiness interventions, "Traffic Light" and "Word and Sound" on kindergartners' handwriting quality, speed and positive reactions to writing. Handwriting readiness training for kindergarten children is…

Student response systems (SRS) or clickers have become the norm in K-12 classrooms as an assessment tool as well as a means to increase class participation. Like most technologies, there are varying platforms and manufacturers of SRS mobile devices ranging in cost from approximately $1500 to $3000. In spring 2010, Microsoft launched a free…

Although interactive technology is presumed to increase student understanding in large classes, no previous research studies have empirically explored the effects of Clicker Cases on students' performance. A Clicker Case is a story (e.g., a problem someone is facing) that uses clickers (student response systems) to engage students in understanding…

Knapp, F. Andrew; Desrochers, Marcie N. – International Journal of Teaching and Learning in Higher Education, 2009
Student response systems (SRSs) are increasingly being used in the classroom. However, there have been few well-controlled experimental evaluations to determine whether students benefit academically from these instructional tools. Additionally, comparisons of SRS with other interactive methods have not often been conducted. We compared SRS,…

Bartsch, Robert A.; Murphy, Wendy – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2011
This experiment examines the causal effect an electronic classroom response system (ECRS) has on students. Previous studies using an ECRS in the classroom indicate improved performance; however, many have confounds typical of classroom studies. To complement these studies, we conducted a laboratory study to minimize these confounds and concentrate…

Ho, Raymond – Journal of Teaching in International Business, 2010
This article compares Chinese students' responses to local Chinese versus American professors, and the effectiveness of the professors' respective teaching techniques. A case study made at a single university in China, which had a joint academic program with the United States, found that Chinese students preferred local Chinese professors to…

Crossgrove, Kirsten; Curran, Kristen L. – CBE - Life Sciences Education, 2008
Student response systems (clickers) are viewed positively by students and instructors in numerous studies. Evidence that clickers enhance student learning is more variable. After becoming comfortable with the technology during fall 2005-spring 2006, we compared student opinion and student achievement in two different courses taught with clickers…

Musti-Rao, Shobana; Kroeger, Stephen D.; Schumacher-Dyke, Karin – Teacher Education and Special Education, 2008
At the postsecondary level, instructors widely use a lecture format to impart knowledge to students. With this pilot study, the authors examine the effects of guided notes and response cards on students' performance on weekly quiz scores and in-class participation. Using an ABCBC withdrawal design, guided notes and response cards used together are…

Martyn, Margie – EDUCAUSE Quarterly, 2007
Current research describes the benefits of active learning approaches. Clickers, or student response systems, are a technology used to promoted active learning. Most research on the benefits of using clickers in the classroom has shown that students become engaged and enjoy using them. However, research on learning outcomes has only compared the…

Gilbertson, Donna; Maxfield, Janie; Hughes, John – Journal of Behavioral Education, 2007
An alternating treatments design was used to compare the effects of two response modes on acquisition and retention rates of letter naming fluency performance (LNF) by six kindergarten English Language Learners (ELLs) performing below the average letter naming level and slope of other ELL classmates. With equal amounts of practice opportunities,…

Jerome, Annamaria; Barbetta, Patricia M. – Journal of Special Education Technology, 2005
An alternating treatments design with a best treatments phase was used to compare two active student response (ASR) conditions and one on-task (OT) condition on the acquisition and maintenance of social studies facts during computer-assisted instruction. Each week for six weeks, five students were provided daily computer-assisted instruction on 21…
