The result analysis shows that in the "challenging" questions, in which answers diverged,…

Wang, Y.-H. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2017
Previous studies on the interactive response system (IRS) have generally adopted the lecture method to facilitate teaching and learning, while few have made efforts to investigate the learning effects of instructional methods and IRS activities on learning and teaching. The purpose of the present study was therefore to explore whether the use of…

Morice, J.; Michinov, N.; Delaval, M.; Sideridou, A.; Ferrières, V. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2015
Peer instruction has been recognized as an instructional method having a positive impact on learning compared to traditional lectures in science. This method has been widely supported by the socio-constructivist approach to learning giving a positive role to interaction between peers in the construction of knowledge. As far as we know, no study…
