Shaw, Doris Smith – Journal of Computer-Based Instruction, 1992
Discusses computer-aided instruction (CAI) for adult learners and describes research conducted at the U.S. Army Construction Engineering Research Laboratory to study the impact of CAI on design professionals, i.e., architects and engineers. Attitudes of adult professionals are examined, and design requirements for a CAI system for professionals…

Reigeluth, Charles M.; Schwartz, Ellen – Journal of Computer-Based Instruction, 1989
Description of computer-based simulations focuses on the instructional functions of simulations and phases in the learning processes that should be activated by educational simulations. Highlights include a general model for simulation design; degree of learner control; complexity of the content; the role of the learner; and motivational…

Reigeluth, Charles M. – Journal of Computer-Based Instruction, 1979
Describes the theory-base of the TICCIT system, summarizes some recent advances in instructional theory for sequencing and synthesizing related parts of a subject matter, and describes three major implications of those advances for the design of future theory-based CAI systems. (Author)
Descriptors: Computer Assisted Instruction, Instructional Design, Teaching Methods
Hagler, Paul; Knowlton, James – Journal of Computer-Based Instruction, 1987
Addresses the implicit assumption that instructional media represent meaningful experimental variables independent of instructional content or strategy. Results of computer-based instruction (CBI) studies (both well-designed and flawed) and meta-analyses are reviewed to support the authors' position that this assumption is invalid, and new…

Schuyler, James A. – Journal of Computer-Based Instruction, 1976
A system with which a CAI courseware author can quickly create instructional courseware in any of a number of computer languages. (Author)
Descriptors: Authoring Aids (Programming), Computer Assisted Instruction, Computer Software, Instructional Design
Hall, Keith A. – Journal of Computer-Based Instruction, 1983
Research on the characteristics of effective computer-based education (CBE) courseware suggests that content structure and levels of questions presented determine whether the deep cognitive processing requisite for learning takes place. A decision table of types of instructional questions covering Bloom's taxonomy is presented and discussed.…

Block, Karen K. – Journal of Computer-Based Instruction, 1979
Reviews several development and research activities that were an out-growth of using cognitive theory to design CAI programs in spelling. A psychological theory of spelling performance was used as the conceptual basis for developing several instructional programs illustrating how a cognitive approach can strengthen lesson design strategies in CAI.…

L'Allier, James J.; Tennyson, Robert D. – Journal of Computer-Based Instruction, 1980
Identifies design variables directly related to the development of computer-based instruction (CBI) and shows how those variables can be applied in the actual development of a course. The design is for a computer literacy course concerned with both content and student attitudes about that content. (Author)

Blombach, Ann K. – Journal of Computer-Based Instruction, 1989
Discusses the development of computer-assisted music instruction at Ohio State University and describes a courseware development system for the Apple Macintosh microcomputer that facilitates the creation of sophisticated computer-assisted music instruction programs. Walter Hewlett's pitch representation system is described, structured programing…

Zenaty, Jayne W.; And Others – Journal of Computer-Based Instruction, 1979
Describes a minicomputer software system for the administration of instructional programs combining interactive cable television and computer aided instruction for potentially large populations at relatively low cost. Both basic two-way cable television technology and the system developed by Michigan State University are discussed. (Author)
Descriptors: Cable Television, Computer Assisted Instruction, Computer Oriented Programs, Cost Effectiveness
Schloss, Cynthia N.; And Others – Journal of Computer-Based Instruction, 1985
This study was conducted to determine effects of highlight and question placement in computer assisted instruction modules on untrained and trained objective test scores and attitudes of higher education students. Question and highlight use was superior to straight text; questions were superior for increasing untrained scores, but students…

Merrill, M. David – Journal of Computer-Based Instruction, 1987
Presents a series of six prescriptions for constructing an authoring system that guides the instructional design process used to create computer-based lessons. The importance of providing opportunities for dynamic interaction between the program and the student is emphasized. (Author/LRW)

Salisbury, David F. – Journal of Computer-Based Instruction, 1990
Identifies and summarizes important research in modern cognitive psychology that has implications for the design of computer drill and practice programs in education. Highlights include automaticity of subskills; interference present in a learning task; spacing of practice sessions; spaced review; capacity of short-term memory; and representation…

Talley, Robert C.; And Others – Journal of Computer-Based Instruction, 1983
Describes a self-paced, computer-managed course on internal medicine for medical students at the University of South Dakota. The rationale for using a computer-based system is outlined, and the program is evaluated for cost-effectiveness, currency of information, curriculum goals and objectives, and student attitudes. (EAO)

Pagliaro, Louis Anthony – Journal of Computer-Based Instruction, 1983
Describes project which investigated the effects of computer-assisted instruction (CAI) with pharmacology undergraduates and documented significant instructional interactions, using three treatment groups--CAI, CAI with lecture, and lecture. No significant differences in learning, retention, or attitude toward CAI were found. It was concluded that…
