A Comparison of Using a Microcomputer, Precision Teaching, and Worksheets to Master Basic Multiplication Facts.
Vacc, Nancy Nesbitt
Journal of Educational Technology Systems, v20 n3 p179-98 1991-92
Discusses methods for teaching mathematics skills and describes a study of third graders that compared student performances on worksheets, a microcomputer drill and practice program, and daily one-minute timing procedures of precision teaching for independent practice of multiplication facts. Results indicate that precision teaching was the most effective strategy. (34 references) (LRW)
