Brothen, Thomas

Research and Teaching in Developmental Education, v13 n1 p69-74 Fall 1996

Discusses benefits and concerns related to the use of Keller's Personalized System of Instruction (PSI), a self-paced course designed for developmental students. Presents findings from a study of psychology students who did well and who failed a modified PSI. Concludes that PSI's organizational structure did not contribute to student failure.
