Lim, Janine M. – International Review of Research in Open and Distributed Learning, 2016
A course design question for self-paced courses includes whether or not technological measures should be used in course design to force students to follow the sequence intended by the course author. This study examined learner behavior to understand whether the sequence of student assignment submissions in a self-paced distance course is related…

Hoffler, Tim N.; Schwartz, Ruth N. – Computers & Education, 2011
The effects of self-pacing versus system-pacing were examined in different versions of a computer-based learning environment (static pictures/animations). The role of cognitive style was also considered. While the variables investigated did not have a direct impact on either learning outcome or cognitive load, significant interaction effects were…

Paas, Fred; Tuovinen, Juhani E.; van Merrienboer, Jeroen J. G.; Darabi, A. Aubteen – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2005
Motivation can be identified as a dimension that determines learning success and causes the high dropout rate among online learners, especially in complex e-learning environments. It is argued that these learning environments represent a new challenge to cognitive load researchers to investigate the motivational effects of instructional conditions…

Hicken, Samuel; And Others – Educational Technology, Research and Development, 1992
Describes a study of undergraduate students that investigated the effects of two types of learner control and two types of incentives--task-contingent and performance-contingent--on learners' achievement, attitudes, use of options, and time on program using computer-delivered instruction. Implications for instructional design and research are…

Song, Hae-Deok; Koszalka, Tiffany A.; Grabowski, Barbara L. – Canadian Journal of Learning and Technology, 2005
Reflective thinking is important to young adolescents as they develop their thinking skills. Various instructional methods have been recommended to support reflective thinking, yet the nature of the underlying factors in these methods is unclear. Exploratory factor analysis was used to determine the factors prompting reflective thinking. Results…
