Investigated effects of computer assisted instruction (CAI) on learning efficiency, defined as either higher passing percentage or less time on task. Subjects (N=24) were college mathematics students who either were lectured or had a CAI tutorial on the lowest common denominator. The CAI group took less time, but solved more problems incorrectly.…

Compares achievement effects and time-on-task generated for computer and non-computer versions of essentially the same game. Notes that students followed different rules for the same game and pace was faster for computer versions. Reports transfer of instruction may not be complete. (MVL)
