| Popis: | This study was designed to determine whether (1) different types of informational feedback (i.e., error correction) affected learning performance; and (2) interactive video was an effective instructional medium with mildly handicapped adolescents. Twenty-six Ss were matched in pairs based on a pretest score and age and then randomly assigned to two groups. The respective group mean IQs were 58 and 60. The learning task consisted of responding to a 10-item true/false learning module on budgeting. Each S was taught individually in a single session. Each of the 10 items would reappear in the interactive video instuctional session until S responded to that item correctly two consecutive times or until S erred on the item a total of three times. Items were presented iteratively to minimize simple memorization of correct responses. The results indicated this medium was effective in that significant learning occurred for both groups. However, there were no differences between Ss introduced to the more extended (Group A) versus briefer (Group B) form of informational feedback. |
