Smits, Marieke H. S. B.; Boon, Jo; Sluijsmans, Dominique M. A.; van Gog, Tamara – Interactive Learning Environments, 2008
This study investigated the effectiveness of different types of feedback content (elaborate versus global) and feedback timing (immediate versus delayed) for learning genetics in a web-based learning environment as a function of learners' prior knowledge. It was hypothesized that learning outcomes of students with low prior knowledge would be…
