Structured Study Questions as a Social Work Teaching Method: A Controlled Experimental Study.

Thyer, Bruce A.; And Others

Innovative Higher Education, v16 n3 p235-45 Spr 1992

A study compared the effectiveness of study questions versus "learning through discussion" in promoting the learning of research skills by 41 students in a Master's in Social Work program. Using a pretest/posttest alternative treatment group design with blind evaluations, the study question method was found to be superior to the alternative approach. (Author/DB)
