Mathematical Self-Efficacy as a Determinant of Successful Learning of Mental Models From Computerized Materials
Original language description
Computerized animations, simulations and games are useful tools for supporting acquisition of mental models. Various personal characteristics, such as prior knowledge and spatial abilities, can influence, in various ways, effectivity of learning from these materials. In comparative studies with between-subject design that investigate learning effects of these materials, it is important to control for these variables because they should be taken as covariates in case the two (or more) research groups arenot sampled equally (which happens even in the case of random assignment of participants to the research groups). In addition, it would be useful to have interventions that measure these variables with as few items as possible; to avoid unbearably longquestionnaires. In this initial exploratory study we investigate if mathematical self-efficacy, measured by a single question, and self-assessed ability of acquiring mental models (SAAMM), also measured by a single question, predicts lear
