The effects of overhead transparency design on retention, recall, and application of data analysis content

This experimental study tested the effects of overhead transparency design in conjunction with live lecture on retention, recall, and application of data analysis content over three occasions using a Solomon Four-Group, pretest-posttest design. Pretested subjects showed significant (p less than .001) gains in test scores from pre to posttest. No significant differences were found in pretest scores between control and experimental treatment groups or among the posttest scores of either the experimental or control groups.
