Zayac, Ryan M.; Ratkos, Thom; Frieder, Jessica E.; Paulk, Amber – Teaching of Psychology, 2016
Research on teaching has shown that incorporating active student responding (ASR) into classroom instruction facilitates learning and should be considered best practice. Nevertheless, few published studies have examined ASR using a within-participant design across a semester. Using a counterbalanced alternating treatment design, a direct…
