Most of the materials used in my experiments have been developed by myself and colleagues. Below are links to examples of the materials I've created, including concept maps, texts, and paired factual and applied questions. If you would like to see all of the content for any of these sets of materials, or would like to use any of these materials in your work, please email me (jmaass1@uco.edu) and I will be happy to share.
Biopsychology Lecture
Approximately 30-minute video recorded from a live classroom lecture in a biological psychology course. Video shows slides only, with voice over (from live classroom lecture) from professor. I have used this video in my note-taking research. Available upon request.
Brief Research Scenarios
Over the course of several years, I compiled a list of over 200 brief research scenarios/ research questions for students to use for identifying appropriate statistical tests. Full materials are available upon request, but here is a sample.Â
Concept Maps
Myself and a fellow (then) Ph.D. student, Kenneth Barideaux, created a brief "Overview of Concept Mapping" information sheet to provide participants with the basic components, functions, and types of concept maps. The document covers how to create and read each type of concept map. I have used concept maps across several domains in different experiments, including the parts of a cell, weather patterns, and energy.
Retrieval Practice Text and Questions
My current work focuses on the effect of format and depth of questions during retrieval practice. Myself and another graduate student familiar in the research an content area created a series of factual and (paired) applied questions from a text about the Circulatory System. Full materials are available upon request, but here is a sample.
Give the system, "Circulatory System Retrieval Practice Experiment (demo)", a try!
