Peer reviewedLevin, Benjamin – Canadian Journal for the Study of Adult Education, 1997
Evaluation of five computer-based integrated learning systems for job skill development (Autoskill, CCC, Invest, Pathfinder, and PLATO) revealed (1) the importance of context (United States vs. Canada); (2) variability of sites being more significant than variability among systems; (3) lack of information on outcomes; and (4) the need to match…

Wilson, Alexander M. – 1992
A study was conducted for the Cumberland Campus of Nova Scotia Community College to determine whether a heterogeneous group of adult learners could make significant gains in academic achievement using a computer-based learning system, and how such gains compared to those associated with more traditional learning approaches. A sample of 15…

Moore, Andrew – 1993
In 1991, the Cumberland Campus of Nova Scotia Community College established a literacy research and development project to survey local industries and the community regarding training needs and to develop workplace and community-based programs to meet those needs. One effort involved the implementation of a computer-assisted learning program to…
