q2 i2 For Year 11 learners, the worked example effect reversed, with problem solving superior to worked examples; the article explains this via the redundancy effect. → Relations Between the Worked Example and Generation Effects on Immediate and Delayed Tests 2016

Relations Between the Worked Example and Generation Effects on Immediate and Delayed Tests 2016¶

Relations Between the Worked Example and Generation Effects on Immediate and Delayed Tests. (2016). Submitted 29/01/2016. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.learninstruc.2016.06.007

q2 · i? · causal · r2

Authors' interpretation of the immediate and delayed test findings for Year 11: "a reversed worked example effect with problem solving superior to worked examples for Year 11"; the underlying simple-effects statistics are reported in the sibling guidance claims. The article theorises the negative effects are due to redundancy.

"the worked example effect for Year 10 was replaced by a reversed worked example effect with problem solving superior to worked examples for Year 11."

Discussion¶

Learner Variables¶

• Prior Knowledge — moderator: an instructional effect differs with it

Related Claims¶

• On the immediate test, novices showed a worked example effect (high guidance superior) while more knowledgeable learners showed a generation effect (low guidance superior) — related
