Owston, Ronald D.; Wideman, H. H. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2001
This study examined the assumption that optimal learning occurs in classrooms in grades one through four where every child has access to their own computers. Results of a multiple analysis of covariance showed that student writing samples showed the most improvement with a student-to-computer ratio of 2:1. (Author/LRW)

ChanLin, Lih-Juan – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2001
Investigated the effects of presentation format (animation, still graphics, text) and the students' prior knowledge on learning a computer-based physics lesson in grades eight and nine. Results of an analysis of covariance indicated that specific presentation formats are not equally effective for the different prior knowledge groups. (Author/LRW)
