q2 · i? · causal · r2
Participant opinion survey after the learning modules, asking how confident students felt about their understanding; responses shown in Figure 3. The percentages are descriptive self-reports; no statistical test of the difference is reported.
"Of the students in the Video group, 44% felt they understood the concept either well or very well. This is in comparison to just 36% in the Text group. Therefore, the results suggest that students in the Video group not only scored better, but also self-reported better understanding of the material."
