Abstract:
|
Using randomization tests in introductory college courses is gaining momentum, but are they the best approach? Do students truly learn the material better? Can these methods be implemented when TA's or part-time faculty are highly utilized? Are they useful in non-introductory courses? Are these methods acceptable in traditional studies and journals? Panelists will discuss pros and cons to this instructional approach.
