Hi Consistent with arguments Roediger and others have been making for a number of years. One surprising finding is that better results generalize to other courses. Authors suggest changes in learning strategies that cut across courses, but would also be consistent with some selection factor, whatever that might be. Would, for example, requirement that students have a laptop eliminate some of the worst-off of the lower social class students?
