Direct linkVan de Sande, E.; Segers, E.; Verhoeven, L. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2016
The present study examined how embedded activities to support executive functions helped children to benefit from a computer intervention that targeted preliteracy skills. Three intervention groups were compared on their preliteracy gains in a randomized controlled trial design: an experimental group that worked with software to stimulate early…

Scanlon, E.; Anastopoulou, S.; Kerawalla, L.; Mulholland, P. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2011
The Personal Inquiry project is an investigation into the role that technologies can play in enabling effective inquiry. While it is generally agreed that inquiry-based learning has potential for student learning, especially in science, three main challenges remain. The first is to provide effective support for inquiry learning, for both students…

Hong, J-C.; Cheng, C-L.; Hwang, M-Y.; Lee, C-K.; Chang, H-Y. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2009
In recent years, digital games have assumed an important place in the lives of children and adolescents. Effective content design is crucial to the success of digital game-based learning. Therefore, the tool for assessing the effectiveness of game design is accordingly very important for parents and teachers, so that they may encourage or…

Peer reviewedJoiner, Richard W. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 1998
A study of 16 boys and 16 girls aged 10-11 investigated gender stereotyped, gender neutral, and abstract versions of problem-solving software. Found that boys preferred the male stereotyped version, whereas girls showed no significant preference for the male, female, or neutral versions. Findings are consistent with research on gender stereotyping…

Ortega-Tudela, J. M.; Gomez-Ariza, C. J. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2006
The present study aims to explore the extent to which computer-assisted teaching facilitates the learning of basic mathematical concepts and skills in children with Down Syndrome (DS). Thus, the effectiveness of a multimedia teaching method is compared with a traditional one in the teaching of counting and cardinality abilities and concepts. In…

Littleton, K.; Wood, C.; Chera, P. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 2006
Framed by current concerns about boys' attainment in literacy, this paper investigates the potential of talking books software to support the literacy development of male beginning readers. The study primarily considered whether typically developing boys who showed lower levels of attainment in phonological awareness would show a greater degree of…
