"If a pupil plays one of Skidos' games for ten weeks or more, their accuracy level in math questions will, on average, go up by four percent besides increasing the time spent on practicing skills," claims the Skidos founder.
I'm sure this is precisely why the program was designed with significant portions of time spent on practicing dialog.
The students' general impression is that, after deciding the objectives together with their teachers, their teachers should be the ones to decide the materials, the activities and the time spent on these practices.
Another reason was that sometimes the time spent on Kanban practices reduced the available time for writing code.
A repeated measure analysis of variance on time spent on subsidized practices with time as the within-subjects factor and experimental condition as the between-subjects factor showed no significant interaction of time*experimental condition, F 2,45) = 0.57, p = .57.57
During the study, a health insurance company will reimburse the extra time spent on SMS by practice nurses and GPs.
In addition to that, the amount of time spent on formal meditation practice per week was used as a third measure of homework compliance in MBCT.
In MBCT, higher outcome expectations also significantly predicted a higher weighted percentage of formal, informal and CBT exercises (B = 15.59, SE = 3.43, p < 0.01), and more time spent on formal meditation practice per week (B = 28.86, SE = 9.47, p < 0.01).
If the GPs were to decide on their own, there would probably be less time spent on health certification, practice administration, meetings with local health authorities, medically unexplained symptoms, follow up of persons unfit for work, psychosocial problems, drug abuse and addiction medicine, preventive health clinics and school health services.
However, a similar analysis on time spent on non-subsidized practices did show a significant interaction of time*experimental condition, F 2,46) = 4.56, p = .02.02
