Nation, Jack R.; And Others
Research in Higher Education, 6, 2, 169-79, 77
Student performance in a Programmed Achievement (PA) condition, requiring weekly quiz mastery, and in a Standard Control (S-C) condition, with no mastery requirement, was compared. PA students showed higher performance on weekly quizzes and a major exam. PA females increased more rapidly than PA males, but S-C males and females were similar. (Author/LBH)
