Microcomputers in Special Education: Implications for Instructional Design.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Hofmeister, Alan M.; Thorkildsen, Ron – Journal of Special Education Technology, 1986
The development of computer-assisted and computer-managed instruction for handicapped students involves a number of instructional design issues requiring research. Discussed are algorithmic and heuristic procedures, individual rate of learning, feedback, and instructional task hierarchies.(Author/DB)

An Adaptive Feedback and Review Paradigm for Computer-Based Drills.
Siegel, Martin A.; Misselt, A. Lynn – 1983
The Corrective Feedback Paradigm (CFP), which has been refined and expanded through use on the PLATO IV Computer-Based Education System, is based on instructional design strategies implied by stimulus-locus analyses, direct instruction, and instructional feedback methods. Features of the paradigm include adaptive feedback techniques with…

Computer Assisted Feedback on Written Reports.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Marshall, Stewart – Computers and Education, 1985
Discussion of how to report writing skills highlights a computer program designed to provide feedback on the communicative effectiveness of students' written reports; presents an example of the typical feedback format which the program provides; and reviews students' reactions to computer assisted feedback.

Differential Characteristics and Methods of Operation Underlying CAI/CMI Drill and Practice Systems.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Hativa, Nira – Journal of Research on Computing in Education, 1988
Describes computer systems that combine drill and practice instruction with computer-managed instruction (CMI) and identifies system characteristics in four categories: (1) hardware, (2) software, (3) management systems, and (4) methods of daily operation. Topics discussed include microcomputer networks, graphics, feedback, degree of learner…

The Role of Prior Experience in Learning from Instruction.
de Klerk, Len F. W. – 1987
This paper reviews several studies on aptitude treatment interaction, the interaction between the learners' individual differences and methods of instruction. Specifically, it investigates the relationship between previous knowledge, including previously held misconceptions, and instructional methods. It is suggested that significant interactions…

Using Computer Networking to Increase Active Teaching in General Education Math Classes Containing Students with Mild Disabilities.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Hayden, Melissa; And Others – Journal of Special Education Technology, 1992
Three middle school teachers of mainstreamed students with mild disabilities used a computer networking system to check student understanding of math concepts. Results indicated that, with coaching on how to use the data generated by the system, teachers increased the amount of time spent on active teaching and providing feedback. (Author/JDD)

Comprehension Monitoring: Longitudinal Unobtrusive Measurement with Microcomputers.
Pitts, Murray M.; And Others – 1983
Uniting two areas of current interest in educational research, a project tested the effectiveness of computer software in observing the process of comprehension monitoring. Passages with embedded comprehension obstacles were presented to two groups of fifth grade students. Identical in content to those of the controls, the experimental subjects'…
