PODCAST EFFECTIVENESS AS SCAFFOLDING SUPPORT FOR STUDENTS ENROLLED IN
FIRST-SEMESTER GENERAL CHEMISTRY LABORATORIES
DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY
Powell, Mary Cynthia Barton. Podcast effectiveness as scaffolding support for students
enrolled in firstsemester general chemistry laboratories. Doctor of Philosophy
(ChemistryChemistry Education), August 2010, 209 pp., 16 tables, 4 figures, references, 116
titles.
Podcasts covering essential firstsemester general chemistry laboratory techniques and
central concepts that aid in experimental design or data processing were prepared and made
available for students to access on an asneeded basis on iPhones→ or iPod touches→.
Research focused in three areas: the extent of podcast usage, the numbers and types of
interactions between instructors and research teams, and student performance on graded
assignments. Data analysis indicates that the podcast treatment research teams accessed a
podcast 2.86 times on average during each week that podcasts were available. Comparison of
interaction data for the lecture treatment research teams and podcast treatment research
teams reveals that interactions with instructors were statistically significantly fewer for teams
that had podcast access rather than a prelaboratory lecture. The implication of the results is
that student research teams were able to gather laboratory information more effectively when
it was presented in an ondemand podcast format. Finally, statistical analysis of data on student
performance on graded assignments indicates no significant differences between outcome
measures for the treatment groups when compared as cohorts. The only statistically significant
difference is between students judged to be highly motivated; for this subgroup the students
in the podcast treatment group earned a course average that was statistically significantly
higher than those in the lecture treatment group.
This research study provides some of the first data collected on the effectiveness of
