Because of these complexities and the still evolving nature of these components, their theories and constructs, an exploratory field research format was chosen for the investigation which uses questionnaires in addition to two qualitative methods: participant observation and in-depth retrospective interviewing.
In Study 1, urban high school students (N = 84) were randomly assigned to one of four versions of a web-based simulation of kinetic molecular theory that varied in instructional format (exploratory vs. worked simulation) and representation (added icons vs. no added icons).
For transfer, a main effect was found for instructional format: the exploratory condition yielded greater levels of transfer than the worked simulation.
The number and breadth of relevant topics can seem overwhelming particularly in the face of limited educational time and numerous competing curricular priorities; however, the top 5 topics identified in the domains of medical practice and research lend themselves to exploratory presentations using diverse formats.
FM radio, which was the pipeline for underground rock, traded quirky, exploratory disc jockeys for consistent formats that advertisers could depend on.
Availability: This method and companion tools are implemented in an interactive Web interface (www.phylotype.org), which provides a wide choice of graphical views and output formats, and allows for exploratory analyses of large data sets.

And as expected from the exploratory study results and equally confirmed in the final experiment, the analytic-imagers performed poorly with the graphics format (Anonymous 2000a).
