Abstract

The structural elements of the experiential component involved in learning electronic spreadsheet applications, from the learner’s point of view and relative to exposure length, have not been systematically studied and identified. Furthermore, any relationship between such structural elements that may exist relative to performance is also lacking in definition. Therefore, this study concerns itself with the assessment of the structural elements of experiential spreadsheet tasks based on ‘earner perception. This study takes the first empirical step toward a more complete understanding of the temporal relationships between the perceived structural elements of experiential spreadsheet task learning and performance. It also looks forward to the expansion of useful information for developing teaching materials and approaches to enhance educational processes involving experiential learning.
