Assessing Perseverance in Studies at the Open University of Israel.
Guri-Rozenblit, Sarah
Assessment and Evaluation in Higher Education, v15 n2 p105-14 Sum 1990
A study at the Open University of Israel found students who study in organized groups and get weekly tutorials have a higher persistence rate than those with tutorials every three weeks. More experienced students and those in liberal arts and social sciences have a higher course completion rate. Age, sex, and educational background have little effect. (Author/MSE)
