Personalized Systems of Instruction in Management—a Replication

Abstract

The article discusses a survey pertaining to the use of personalized systems of instruction (PSI) in management education. The PSI method has been used with some success in the psychology, physics, and engineering fields. In this study two PSI sections were compared with two traditional management lecture/discussion sessions. The research found there was no significant differences in academic performance between those using PSI and those using traditional methods. The PSI group performed slightly better on the common final examination.
