The Use of Internet-Based Learning in Biology.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Lin, Chen-yung; Cheng, Yeong-jing; Chang, Yung-ta; Hu, Reping – Innovations in Education and Teaching International, 2002
Describes a study that implemented an Internet-based project in a Taiwanese secondary school biology class and investigated its effect on the cognitive preferences held by students and on their performance. Reports results of analyses of covariance that compared scores of short-answer questions, multiple choice items, and total final examination…

Effect Sizes Associated with Micro-PROLOG-Based Computer-Assisted Learning.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Fraser, Barry J.; Teh, George P. L. – Computers & Education, 1994
Discussion of effect sizes in computer-assisted learning research focuses on a study conducted in Singapore high school geography classes that used micro-PROLOG to determine the efficacy of computer-assisted learning. Topics include impact on achievement, student attitudes, and classroom environment. (53 references) (LRW)

The Impact of Different Forms of Multimedia CAI on Students' Science Achievement.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Chang, Chun-Yen – Innovations in Education and Teaching International, 2002
Describes a study that explored the effects of teacher-centered versus student-centered multimedia computer-assisted instruction on the science achievements of tenth-grade students in Taiwan. Results of analysis of covariance on pretests-posttest scores showed the teacher-centered approach was more effective in promoting students' science…

Wideman, Herbert H.; Owston, Ronald D. – 1991
This study examined cognitive processes and outcomes associated with student knowledge base development. Sixty-nine students from two grade 8 classes were randomly assigned to one of three groups: a knowledge base development (KBD) group, a problem-solving software group, and a control group. Those in the KBD group received relevant instruction…

Learning with Computers in Small Groups: Cognitive and Affective Outcomes.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Mevarech, Zemira R.; And Others – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 1991
Examines the effects of cooperative and individualistic computer-assisted instruction (CAI) programs on cognitive and affective variables in Israeli grade six mathematics classes. Analyses of the data indicate that students who used CAI for drill and practice in pairs performed better than students who used the same program individually. (30…

The Use of a Computer Tutorial as a Replacement for Human Tuition in a Mastery Learning Strategy.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Whiting, John – Computers and Education, 1985
Reports on use of a tutorial program written in STAF2 authoring language to replace human teaching in an undergraduate biology mastery learning program. Learning was assessed cognitively in terms of Bloom's Taxonomy. Students taught by the STAF2 computer program attained significantly higher scores for retention, application, and evaluation of…
