Improving Student Laboratory Performance: How Much Practice Makes Perfect?
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Beasley, Warren – Science Education, 1985
Analyzes three approaches (physical, mental, combined practice) to improving freshman chemistry psychomotor laboratory skills. Although no significant differences were found between treatments, there were significant differences when each was compared to the control sections. Mental practice appears to offer an efficient methods for reinforcement…
