MacLeod, Jason; Yang, Harrison Hao; Zhu, Sha; Shi, Yinghui – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2018
In an effort to address student engagement challenges, much research has explored student-to-student connected classroom climate (CCC). Research positively associates CCC to the benefits of student integration, learning, and retention in face-to-face environments. However, few studies have examined CCC in computer-mediated environments. This study…

Lipponen, L.; Rahikainen, M.; Hakkarainen, K.; Palonen, T. – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2002
This study analyzed how students and teachers of one Finnish elementary class participated in and communicated through the Computer Supported Intentional Learning Environment (CSILE) during 1997-1998. The density of the interaction within class, students' participation rates, students' position in the CSILE mediated network of interaction, and the…

Schustack, Miriam W.; Strauss, Rachelle; Worden, Patricia E. – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 1997
Addresses the effects of an after-school computer club network, the Fifth Dimension, on children's computer knowledge development. Compares Fifth Dimension novices and "experts" who had attended several times previously. Concludes that despite the absence of formal instruction, children's knowledge about computers is enhanced.

Mayer, Richard E. – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 1997
Gives an introduction to three articles addressing the potential value of a network of after-school computer clubs called the Fifth Dimension. The articles demonstrate improvements in computer literacy (near transfer), ability to understand arithmetic and word problems (medium transfer), and reading and mathematics achievement (far transfer).

Blanton, William E.; Moorman, Gary B.; Hayes, Bobbie A.; Warner, Mark L. – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 1997
Examines the effects of participation in the Fifth Dimension after-school computer program on far transfer achievement in the subject areas of reading and math. Provides evidence that children who participate in the Fifth Dimension master knowledge and skill structures and acquire practices that mediate their performance on global measures of…

Mayer, Richard E.; Quilici, Jill; Moreno, Roxana; Duran, Richard; Woodbridge, Scott; Simon, Rebecca; Sanchez, David; Lavezzo, Amy – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 1997
Children who attended the Fifth Dimension after-school computer club at least 10 times during the 1994-95 school year performed better on word problem comprehension tests than did non-participating children. Results support the hypothesis that experience in using computer software in the Fifth Dimension club produces measurable, resilient, and…

Gallini, Joan K.; Helman, Neal – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 1995
Describes a study of fifth graders interacting with their teacher, local, and distant peers over a telecommunications network, that focused on how the information exchanges impacted students' development of audience awareness in written compositions. Analytic and holistic scoring procedures were applied to determine differences in students'…
