Question
Read this same passage and answer this question. Is it response variable or explanatory variable?

Transcribed Image Text:Indicate explanatory and response variables.
Response variable.
O Explanatory variable.
Class assignment (active or passive).

Transcribed Image Text:Active Learning vs Passive Learning: Which is Best? Active learning in a classroom implies that students are actively involved and
working during class time (either individually, in pairs, or in groups)while passive learning indicates that students are primarily taking
notes while the instructor lectures. A recent study¹ measured students actual learning under these two formats as well as their
feelings of learning. The study was very well designed: students in a college physics course were randomly assigned to a class period
with either active learning or passive learning, the same content and handouts were used in both, and both instructors were highly
rated. After the class, students were asked to rate how much they thought they had learned (on a 5-point Likert scale) and they also
took a 20-question multiple choice exam to test how much they had actually learned. The results were very interesting: students
thought that they learned more in the passive learning class but they actually learned more in the active learning class.
