LEVEL OF INTERACTIVITY OF VIDEODISC INSTRUCTION ON COLLEGE STUDENTS' RECALL OF AIDS INFORMATION

Abstract
Experiment 1 confirmed the greater effectiveness of constructed-response interactive videodisc instruction when compared to a click-to-continue or passive viewing formats on posttest recall of AIDS information by 101 college students. Experiment 2 extended the analysis using a counterbalanced (ABAB-BABA) intrasubject design with 4 students in each of three ability groups. The necessity of constructing answers appears to be an important factor in the effectiveness of instructional programs.
