Unit Size and Progress Rates in Self-Paced Instruction

Nelson, Terry F.; Bennett, Marcia L.

Journal of College Science Teaching, 3, 2, 130-133, Dec 73

Studied effects of unit sizes of reading materials on students' progress rates in an educational psychology course with a self-pacing instruction. Concluded that small unit size could aid in promoting studying behaviors, without the corresponding increase in the number of units being felt as a greater burden. (CC)
