Evidence for Confounding in Computer-Based Instruction Studies: Analyzing the Meta-Analysis.
Clark, Richard E. – Educational Communication and Technology, 1985
Computer-based instruction (CBI) studies analyzed by Kulik et al. were examined to explore the validity of competing claims about the computer's contribution to measured achievement gains. Results suggest achievement gains found in CBI studies are overestimated and are due to uncontrolled but robust instructional methods embedded in CBI…

Gourgey, Annette F. – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 1987
This study of drill-and-practice computer-assisted instruction (CAI) compares CAI with reinforcement, CAI with formal classroom instruction, and CAI alone to determine which is most effective for gains in achievement. Results are analyzed for remedial students in grades four to eight who studied reading and math, and future research needs are…
