Peer reviewedSmyth, Timothy – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 1987
Describes a computer program that allows undergraduate students to undertake nomenclature tutorials in organic chemistry, where user response is evaluated based on a set of rules that determine appropriate feedback. Design of the software is described, including the use of computer graphics, and results of students' evaluations are briefly…

Acker, Stephen R.; Klein, Elisa L. – Educational Communication and Technology, 1986
This study examined the level of realism inherent in videotape and computer graphics display systems by comparing the ability of third graders, middle schoolers, and university students to estimate end states of visual transformations of spatial tasks. Their preferences for working with videotaped or computer-generated materials are also…
