Reid, David J.; Wicks, Sheila – Programmed Learning and Educational Technology, 1988
Describes a study that investigated color combination preferences of three- to six-year-olds performing a simple perceptual task on a microcomputer screen. Comparisons with Swedish research are made, implications for the production of educational materials for young children are discussed, and suggestions for further research are made. (10…

Martinez, Kirk – Microcomputers for Information Management, 1991
Describes VASARI (the Visual Art System for Archiving and Retrieval of Images), a project funded by the European Community to show the feasibility of high resolution colormetric imaging directly from paintings. The hardware and software used in the system are explained, storage on optical disks is described, and initial results are reported. (five…

Peer reviewedHativa, Nira; Teper, Avigdor – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 1988
Discussion of the use of color in microcomputer-based educational software focuses on a study of Israeli ninth graders that examined the differential effects of three color treatments on the learning of geometric concepts by students with differential aptitudes. Hypotheses tested are described and results are analyzed. (28 references) (Author/LRW)
