Results: SIGNIFICANT - Results from an independent samples t-test indicate that students who did not participate in the library module (M = .651, SD = .399) scored significantly lower on the research assignment than students who participated in at least one section of the library module (M = .806, SD = .271). The mean difference was significant, t (128) = -2.075, p = .020, r2 = .033.
Results: SIGNIFICANT - A Spearman correlation analysis between number of library modules completed and number of sessions in the online library revealed that there is a statistically significant weak positive relationship between them, rs = .157, n = 170, p = .02
Results: SIGNIFICANT - A Spearman correlation for the data revealed that the number of online library sessions and grade on the research assignment were significantly positively related with a moderate relationship (rs = .415, n = 295, p = <.001)
