Abstract Details

2009, Master of Arts, Ohio State University, ED Physical Activities and Educational Services.
College students typically are engaged in passive learning and are often poor note takers, recording less than 50 percent of the critical points during a lecture session (Baker & Lombardi, 1985). Active student responding (ASR) through guided notes has been shown to be an effective learning strategy with college students enrolled in Special Education and Pyschology. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of guided notes on undergraduate hygiene students. The instructor provided both guided notes and completed notes for the hygiene students. A reversal design was employed so that during baseline the students received completed notes and then switched to guided notes during intervention. Baseline and intervention conditions lasted approximately two and half weeks each for the quarter, ending with the intervention condition. The dependent variable was performance on five quiz questions at the end of each lecture. Four students, with relatively lower baseline scores were identified as target subjects. The results indicated that students received slightly higher scores on lectures of completed notes, versus lectures of guided notes. Findings are explained in terms of a possible ceiling effect and insufficient quiz items.
