Blasko, Dawn G.; Kazmerski, Victoria A.
Teaching of Psychology, v26 n4 p295-98 Aut 1999
Compares teaching observational research using a lecture format to using a software program called Courseware for Observational Research (COR). Finds that the COR-instructed class obtained a mean score of 78% on the examination, earned higher grades on the research reports, and rated the usefulness of conducting research more highly than the lecture-instructed class.
