An Experimental Test of an Extended Discretion Laboratory Approach for University General Biology.
Leonard, William H.
Journal of Research in Science Teaching, v26 n1 p79-91 Jan 1989
This was an experiment to test the extended discretion laboratory approach versus a guided-inquiry approach for teaching biology in a university setting. Among three criterion variables (examination, reports, and quizzes), only the laboratory report scores showed differences between groups and group-by-instructor interaction. (Author/YP)
