The study investigated the effectiveness of the embedded streaming video strategy in an online learning environment on declarative knowledge learning of neuroscience. The design used in this study was the posttest-only control-group design. A sample of 92 undergraduate students from an institution located in the Midwestern region of the United States participated in this study. The students in the experimental group received online text-based instruction with static graphics and embedded streaming video, while the control group received the online text-based instruction with static graphics.
No significant difference in students’ immediate learning performance was found as measured by the content-related immediate posttest; however, a significant difference was found in students’ knowledge retention as measured by the content-related retention posttest. Adding streaming video to the online learning environment is recommended as one way to enhance retention of student declarative knowledge learning.
