Flegr 2023¶

Flegr, S., Kuhn, J., & Scheiter, K. (2023). How to foster STEM learning during Covid-19 remote schooling: Combining virtual and video experiments. Learning and Instruction, 86, 101778. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.learninstruc.2023.101778

q3 · i2 · causal · r2

Post-to-follow-up mixed ANOVA in the randomized experiment, based on only n = 72 of the original 154 participants due to missing follow-up data. Students performed "slightly worse in the follow-up test" (partial η2 = 0.09); no condition effect or interaction emerged.

"The mixed ANOVA revealed a significant main effect of time, F(1, 69) = 6.94; MSE = 1109.68; p = .01; partial η2 = 0.09 (medium effect), suggesting that students performed slightly worse in the follow-up test (M = 57.42%, SE = 2.15) than in the immediate post-test (M = 62.89%, SE = 2.30)."
