The Microcomputer and Achievement and Attitudes in High School Biology.

Peer reviewed

Hounshell, Paul B.; Hill, Stanford R., Jr. – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 1989

This study examined the impact of a biology course emphasizing computer simulation on student achievement and student attitudes toward science. The students in the experimental group were placed in a class limited to 16 students to have 2 students to each computer. (YP)
