CAI versus Paper and Pencil--Discrepancies in Students' Performance.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Hativa, Nira – Instructional Science, 1988
This study identified differences in elementary school students' performance of arithmetic tasks using paper and pencil and computer-assisted instruction. Many were found to perform more poorly using the computer, while others showed the opposite tendency. These findings challenge the validity of decisions made by the computer-based management…

Timing Students' Answers in CAI.
Hativa, Nira; And Others – Journal of Computer-Based Instruction, 1991
Discussion of limiting response time for students' answers focuses on a study of Israeli elementary students that investigated the effects on their performance of increasing the response time in computer-assisted instruction (CAI) for arithmetic drill and practice. Effects on high- versus low-aptitude students, and younger versus older, are…

Competition in Individualized CAI.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Hativa, Nira; And Others – Instructional Science, 1993
Examines the effects of competition and cooperation on learning through computer-assisted instruction (CAI). A questionnaire was administered to 457 Israeli fourth graders who used two CAI arithmetic systems. The characteristics of the systems are discussed, and the results of the survey are correlated to students' gender and achievement levels.…

Computer-Based Drill and Practice in Arithmetic: Widening the Gap between High- and Low-Achieving Students.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Hativa, Nira – American Educational Research Journal, 1988
The differential effects of computer-assisted instruction for high-achieving and low-achieving students were examined for seven elementary students of varied background. Higher-achieving students were more able to adjust to the requirements of computer work and to derive benefit from it than were lower-achieving students. Implications for teaching…

Student Conceptions of, and Attitudes toward, Specific Features of a CAI System.
Hativa, Nira – Journal of Computer-Based Instruction, 1989
Describes study of Israeli elementary school students that examined student attitudes toward computer-assisted instruction (CAI) designed to provide drill and practice in arithmetic. Attitudes are compared in relation to students' aptitude, gender, grade level, and socioeconomic status, and implications for the design of CAI systems are discussed.…
