Michael Mendicino; Leena Razzaq; Neil T. Heffernan – Journal of Research on Technology in Education, 2009
This study compared learning for fifth grade students in two math homework conditions. The paper-and-pencil condition represented traditional homework, with review of problems in class the following day. The Web-based homework condition provided immediate feedback in the form of hints on demand and step-by-step scaffolding. We analyzed the results…
