The Effects of Microcomputer-Based Laboratory Exercises on the Acquisition of Line Graph Construction and Interpretation Skills by High School Biology Students.

Download full text

Adams, D. Daryl; Shrum, John W. – 1988

Effects of microcomputer-based laboratory (MBL) exercises and level of cognitive development on high school biology students' ability to construct and interpret line graphs were investigated. Forty-six students enrolled in general biology classes at a rural high school volunteered to participate in the study. These students were administered…

The Effectiveness of Using Computer Simulated Experiments on Junior High Students' Understanding of the Volume Displacement Concept.

Peer reviewed

Choi, Byung-Soon; Gennaro, Eugene – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 1987

Reports on a study which compared the effectiveness of microcomputer simulated experiences with that of parallel, hands-on laboratory instruction for teaching the concept of volume displacement to junior high school students. Results indicated that computer simulated experience were as affective as hands-on laboratory experiences. (TW)
