Demographic QuestionsHow confident are you that you will be successful in the laboratory part of the course?What is the likelihood you would enroll in a fully online college science class in which labs would be performed at home or on your computer?
Pre-LabHow engaged or interested in doing this lab are you?How anxious are you about doing this lab?Content Questions
Post-LabHow confident are you that you completed this lab correctly?Did you feel isolated while you completed this lab activity?Content Questions
Final Course SurveyRank the lab methodologies according to your preferenceRank the lab methodologies according to difficulty
Lab Methodology /Psychological ConstructsNo statistically significant effect with respect to post lab student satisfactionThere were statistically significant effects for post lab self-efficacy, post lab teacher immediacy, and time on task.
Lab Methodology /Psychological ConstructsSelf-efficacy, teacher immediacyClassroom vs. Virtual/Lab KitTime on taskLab Kit vs. Classroom
Final ThoughtsThe laboratories of the 21st Century can be more diverse and accessible than ever before.We must prepare students to learn in new environments and in new ways.Good methodologies and student engagement are just as important as equipment and buildings.
