The Microcomputer and Achievement and Attitudes in High School Biology.

Peer reviewed

Hounshell, Paul B.; Hill, Stanford R., Jr. – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 1989

This study examined the impact of a biology course emphasizing computer simulation on student achievement and student attitudes toward science. The students in the experimental group were placed in a class limited to 16 students to have 2 students to each computer. (YP)

Enhancing Student Achievement through Computer-Generated Homework.

Peer reviewed

Milkent, Marlene M.; Roth, Wolff-Michael – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 1989

Investigated were the effects of interactive computer-generated homework on unit tests, a final examination, and a comprehensive test given near the end of a Physical Science I course. The results indicated that the use of the homework reduced the effectiveness of the American College Test scores as a predictor of course achievement. (YP)
