Hsieh, Yi-Chuan Jane; Cifuentes, Lauren – Educational Technology & Society, 2006
Mixed methods were adopted to explore the effects of student-generated visualization on paper and on computers as a study strategy for middle school science concept learning. In a post-test-only-control-group design, scores were compared among a control-group (n=28), a group that was trained to visualize on paper (n=30), and a group that was…
