Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

This article reviews the five basic features of PSI courses and then assesses the relative importance of each in contributing to students' success. Some of the relevant research findings are cited to provide support for the conclusions regarding each feature. In addition, a number of concerns are presented which should be considered by instructors and instructional designers before implementing a personalized system. While PSI may not be appropriate for all instructional settings, the system is based on some tenets of sound teaching practice: high student involvement, immediate feedback, and mastery orientation.
