Merrill, M. David – Journal of Computer-Based Instruction, 1985
Primary advantage of authoring languages is special subroutines facilitating educational programing; primary disadvantages are execution speed, memory limitations, and little gain in programing ease. Primary advantage of authoring systems is menu-driven editors; primary disadvantage is significant limitation in the frame-based branching programed…

Culhane, Terry – 1985
Many commericially available computer programs contain test-type materials, and some courseware makes use of testing techniques as an instructional device. The area in which testing techniques are used most effectively for teaching is self-instruction. Most microcomputers operate using the BASIC language, but authoring languages are the most…

Lee, Miheon J. – 1990
This study of 24 third-grade students learning Logo had 3 major research goals: (1) to compare the effects of learner control with those of program control on students' metacognition, knowledge acquisition, and knowledge application, with total subjects; (2) to extend the comparison between learner control and program control by classifying the…
