Banerjee, G., Murthy, S., & Iyer, S. (2015). Effect of active learning using program visualization in technology-constrained college classrooms. research and practice in technology Enhanced Learning, 10(1), 15. (Effectiveness of student-centered teaching with visualizations (animations, videos,simulations) ) The instructional strategy of prediction with visualization (“Responding”) led to statistically significant higher active behavioral engagement and higher perception of learning among students than the strategy of watching the visualization with instructor commentary (“Viewing”).
We also found statistically significant higher cognitive achievement in terms of the rate of problem solving for the “Responding” group, if the students had prior training in active learning.
This study can serve as a reference guide to design effective integration of visualizations in instructor-mediated classrooms.
