Burgher, J. K.; Finkel, D.; Adesope, O. O.; Van Wie, B. J. – Journal of STEM Education: Innovations and Research, 2015
This study used a within-subjects experimental design to compare the effects of learning with lecture and hands-on desktop learning modules (DLMs) in a fluid mechanics and heat transfer class. The hands-on DLM implementation included the use of worksheets and one of two heat exchangers: an evaporative cooling device and a shell and tube heat…

Baxter, E. Paul – Higher Education, 1990
The longitudinal study with second-year Chemical Engineering students (N=31) found conventionally taught courses generated study problems in the lecture and student assessment components whereas in resource-based education students confronted problems with the resource laboratory, with reference materials, with tutorials, and with student…
