Peer reviewedSutherland, Rosamund – Educational Studies in Mathematics, 1989
Investigated are the developments of pupils' use and understanding of algebraic ideas within a LOGO programing context and a non-computational context. The research consists of a 3-year longitudinal case study of 4 pairs of pupils aged 11-16. LOGO experience enhanced the understanding of algebraic ideas. (Author/YP)

Findings are presented from two separate year-long longitudinal studies of the development of planning skills among school aged children in relation to learning LOGO programming, and a theoretical context is provided for predictions of greater improvement by the programming groups. In the first year, experimental groups comprised students in each…

Peer reviewedClements, Douglas H. – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 1987
This study investigated the delayed effects of LOGO programing on the cognitive abilities and achievement of children in the primary grades. Results of tests administered 18 months after first graders participated in either LOGO computer programing or computer-assisted instruction treatments and interviews five months after testing are reported…

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'…
