Karasavvidis, Ilias; Pieters, J. M.; Plomp, T. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2003
Describes a study of secondary school students in the Netherlands that compared the use of paper and pencil or computer spreadsheets to solve correlational problems in geography. Discusses results of videotape transcripts that compared teacher and student behaviors and considered mechanisms through which computers contribute to learning.…

Kamsteeg, Paul A.; Bierman, Dick J. – 1989
A study of 228 undergraduate psychology students examined the effectiveness of a prototype of "heatlab," a laboratory simulation written in PCE-PROLOG, intended for remedying misconceptions of the concepts "heat" and "temperature." The effect of varying the amount of structure on students' understanding and the…

Ranzijn, Frederick J. A. – Computers in Human Behavior, 1989
Describes research with Dutch secondary school students that studied the effects of the presentation of more general (superordinate) concepts on the attainment of basic concepts, and the effects of two different forms of example presentation on concept learning. Computer based instruction and interactive video used in the study are described. (18…

van Beek, Jan; And Others – Computers and Education, 1989
Describes a study conducted at the University of Groningen (Netherlands) that investigated the effectiveness of a computer-based training program for use with an automated system for retrieving legal information. Hypotheses tested are explained, computer-based versus traditional instructional methods are compared, and implications for further…

Beishuizen, J. J. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 1992
Discussion of teaching complex knowledge domains through exploration highlights two experiments that investigated the educational value of a Dutch computer simulation program which models the relationship between erosion and agriculture in a developing country as part of the secondary school geography curriculum. Learning by doing versus learning…

Ranzijn, Frederik J. A. – Instructional Science, 1992
Describes two experiments in Dutch secondary schools that were carried out to study the effect of the sequencing of the information in computer-assisted instructional programs. Instructional design for concept learning is discussed; successive and coordinate relationships between concepts are explained; and tests designed for procedural and…
