Abstract:
This study presents a web-based matrix organizer that houses multi-media course content, including videos and infographics, for an undergraduate business statistics course. Content is “chunked” into microlessons explaining the “When, What and How” of several statistical techniques. An observational study was conducted to evaluate satisfaction with the tool and how the tool influenced learning. Results show that students felt the tool was easy to use and helped them organize and learn information. Some evidence suggests users have higher perceived learning and grades than non-users. The structure can be used for other courses; recommendations for implementing similar systems are presented.
