Nicolson, Roderick I.; Parrott, Lisa J. M. – Programmed Learning and Educational Technology, 1986
This study evaluated the Computer Aided Grading Exercises (CAGE) authoring system on ease of creating programs, popularity of such programs, ease of progression through created exercises, and transfer of learning. Subjects were 12-year-olds with moderate learning difficulties. It was found that the system produced popular exercises and engendered…
