Abstract

In this study, we examined the effectiveness of an adaptive tutorial on college students’ learning outcomes, mainly, learning performance, motivation, and study time. Two versions of the tutorial were developed; adaptive and non-adaptive. A total of 134 undergraduate students were randomly assigned to adaptive (n=74) or non-adaptive (n=60). Our results revealed that the adaptive group had a significantly higher knowledge gains than the non-adaptive group.
