Saunders-Harris, Ramona; Yeany, Russell H. – Journal of Experimental Education, 1981
Subjects were assessed for locus of control and experienced either: no diagnosis; diagnosis; or, diagnosis and remediation. Immediate achievement was measured twice during the experiment; retention was measured 30 days later. Findings suggest that diagnostic or diagnostic/remedial instruction is effective in increasing middle school science…

Sieber, Joan E.; Saks, Michael J. – American Psychologist, 1989
Subjects for research in graduate psychology departments are frequently drawn from subject pools of undergraduates in introductory courses. Participation is often included among course requirements. A survey found some deviance from American Psychological Association (APA) ethical guidelines or federal law. Exemplary subject pool procedures and…

Volet, Simone E. – Learning and Instruction, 1991
Results from an experiment with 28 experimental and 28 matched control college students taking a 13-week computer science course support the potential of modeling and coaching students in metacognitive strategies to enhance learning. The instructional method had significant long-term and short-term effects on cognitive and affective learning…

Imbens-Bailey, Alison L. – Topics in Language Disorders, 1998
Discusses how clinicians and researchers can critically evaluate information from efficacy studies of language intervention programs. It argues for combining both experimental and nonexperimental approaches and suggests that the use of matching in nonrandomized studies allows for comparison of groups of children participating in an intervention…

Zhang, Shuqiang – Language Learning, 1995
Analyzes the mental organizations of two sets of fuzzy lexical items by 70 native speakers (NSs) of English and 185 learners of English as a Second Language (ESL). Findings suggest that a discernible approximative pattern exists in the acquisition of ESL semantics, with the differentiation of certain words acquired before the differentiation of…

Rohall, David E.; Moran, Catherine L.; Brown, Cliff; Caffrey, Elizabeth – Teaching Sociology, 2004
Teachers have incorporated active-learning techniques into the sociology classroom for many years, but the types of applications and evaluations are quite varied. In this paper, the authors quantitatively test a particular form of active learning that they call "living-data exercises," which instructors can use to introduce sociological research…

Problem-based learning (PBL) is one of the active learning models that supports flexibility and creativity in learning, and takes individual differences into consideration. The basic principle of PBL is to make students come face-to-face with conditions that could be similar to real ones in their professions. This objective is accomplished by…
