Abstract:

A geology course, which targets education majors, used aWeb-based PowerPoint soils presentation as an interdisciplinary instruction module. The module was well received by the students and data from comparisons between the pretest, posttest and delayed-posttest show significant knowledge gained. The performance of the students on the posttest and delayed-posttest corresponded to their GPA and their acceptance level to Web-based module instruction. The results demonstrate that modules from one discipline can effectively be used to supplement the material presented in another discipline though asynchronous methods.
