The abstract reports across the 422-pupil rotation experiment that "Pupils of all intelligence levels learn from filmstrips and sound motion pictures," with higher-intelligence pupils achieving higher scores.

"Pupils of all intelligence levels learn from filmstrips and sound motion pictures, with those of higher intelligence achieving correspondingly higher scores than those in lower intelligence levels."

Discussion¶

Learner Variables¶

• General Cognitive Ability — predictor: learners who differ on it differ in outcomes

Related Claims¶

• Both sound motion pictures and silent filmstrips contributed to increased learning of fifth-grade social studies. — related
• Silent filmstrips produced significantly higher mean gains than sound motion pictures, so sound and motion were not essential for maximum learning. — related
• Pupil preference for sound motion pictures (only 24 pupils preferred silent filmstrips) is not, per the recorded results, justification for their use. — related
