q2 · i? · design · r2

A study in which 37 U.W.I. Computer Science and IT students rated CRITS content on a five-point Likert scale at each cultural density level. A single factor ANOVA found "significant differences in student preferences since F>F critical and p <0.00001"; the 'Liked' category held 45.3% of ratings.

"The results, shown in Table 1, revealed that there were significant differences in student preferences since F>F critical and p <0.00001."

• Students tolerate higher cultural density for semantically contextualised content (descriptions, images), peaking at 40%, than for linguistically modified hints and feedback, peaking at 20% — related
• Student ratings of hint and feedback content trend negatively at 60% cultural density, likely linked to informal dialect — reports the opposite
• Student ratings of culturally contextualised content show no statistically significant effects of cultural density level or content type, and no significant interaction — related
