Marshall, Francisca B.; Marshall, Justin – Journal of Interactive Learning Research, 2021
The goal of this study was to explore how knowledge-check questions in video lectures affected learning. In a quasi-experimental study, six courses (n=84) were assigned to one of three groups: a control group and two treatment groups. The three groups saw the same video and knowledge-check questions. The three groups were evaluated with different…
