Cunningham, Jim – International Educational Data Mining Society, 2015
In this paper, I describe preliminary work on a new research project in learning analytics at Arizona State University. In conjunction with an innovative remedial mathematics course using Khan Academy and student coaches, this study seeks to measure the effectiveness of visualized data in assisting student coaches as they help remedial math…

Kee, Chang Peng; Osman, Kamisah; Ahmad, Fauziah – International Education Studies, 2013
Statistical analysis is one component that cannot be avoided in a quantitative research. Initial observations noted that students in higher education institution faced difficulty analysing quantitative data which were attributed to the confusions of various variable measurements. This paper aims to compare the outcomes of two approaches applied in…

Skinner, Michael E. – Computers in Human Behavior, 1990
Describes a study that was designed to demonstrate the effects of computer-based instruction (CBI) on undergraduates' achievement based on achievement status and mode of presentation. Treatments for experimental and control groups are explained, the alternating treatments design (ATD) methodology is discussed, and the personalized system of…

Walker, Joan M. T.; Brophy, Sean P.; Hodge, Lynn Liao; Bransford, John D. – New Directions for Teaching and Learning, 2006
This study evaluated students' perceptions of two types of instructional materials focused on engineering professionalism: a passage of advice about professionalism and the same passage with a video enacting the advice. The role of experience in learning about professionalism is discussed, with particular emphasis on how educational materials…

Viennot, Laurence; Kaminski, Wanda – International Journal of Science Education, 2006
This paper describes an attempt at evaluating a potentially critical "detail" of teaching practice; that is, using a particular diagram to illustrate the imaging role of a converging lens. This "basic" diagram has been designed to contribute to help students overcome the well-known "travelling image" syndrome. We conducted a comparative study with…

Levenson, Phyllis M.; And Others – Journal of Educational Technology Systems, 1986
This study compared undergraduates' cognitive and affective responses to interactive and noninteractive video instruction on smokeless tobacco. The interactive video group demonstrated more accurate and comprehensive recall than the noninteractive and control groups; they were more willing to promote cessation among users; and learner satisfaction…

Moore, David M.; Bedient, Douglas – Journal of Instructional Psychology, 1986
Describes two experiments conducted with undergraduate students to determine effects of field dependence/independence on visual characteristics and presentation modes. The first studied content information recall from still projected visuals of different sizes and types of illustrations; the second studied visual-location task performance and…

Boen, Linda – 1985
A study was conducted to determine the effectiveness of interactive video in teaching study skills and to discover: (1) the overall attitudes of students toward computer-directed instruction (CDI) as compared to traditional teaching methods; (2) whether two groups, instructed via CDI and traditional methods, differed significantly in knowledge of…

Di Vesta, Francis J.; Finke, F. Michael – Educational Communication and Technology, 1985
Two studies investigated robustness of the effect of precise elaborations on memory and relationship of these effects to metacognitions about learning. Sentences which were elaborated in different ways were read to subjects by experimenters to establish levels of meaningfulness and identify effects on performance. Comprehension and confidence…

Ross, Steven M. – Journal of Computer-Based Instruction, 1984
Three adaptive models encompassing variations of instructional support, incentives, and context of presentations were developed and validated through eight separate studies which compared the teaching of statistics under computer-managed instruction or teacher-managed systems. Results indicate instructional support adaptations were effective, but…
