The Impact of Pre-Lecture Quizzes on Students’ Performance in Blended Learning

Abstract

Testing is a powerful mechanism to enhance the learning process. This study analyses the impact of pre-lecture quizzes on students’ performance. Based on quizzes results, 2 groups are created. A series of indices are used in order to decide the number of clusters for each group. The analysis of each cluster reveals details related to the association between the results obtained by students on quizzes and their performance on course. Post-hoc tests like Tukey’s test, Levene test, and Games Howel test are used to investigate the variances between students’ performance based on quizzes’ results.
