Wang, Xinyue; Cheng, Mengmeng; Li, Xinfeng – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2023
Computational thinking (CT) is considered a fundamental skill that everyone in the 21st century should have. Game-based learning (GBL) may be used to teach CT, and it's necessary to clarify how to design and implement game-based CT teaching. The literature was systematically searched for empirical studies published between 2011 and 2021.…

Bures, Eva Mary; Amundsen, Cheryl C.; Abrami, Philip C. – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2002
Investigated the relationship between university student motivation and student acceptance of learning via computer conferencing (CC). Considered frequency of contributing online messages; satisfaction with CC; grades; effort; goal orientation; personal relevance of tasks; task attractiveness; and students' beliefs concerning the relationship of…

King, Frederick B. – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2001
Describes a study that examined an instrument designed to measure student perceptions concerning distance education technology and self-regulated learning across numerous synchronous distance education courses from six universities and determined whether either of these factors had an impact on student perceptions of distance learning and student…

Bradshaw, Amy C.; Johari, Abbas – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2002
Measured the effects of specific white space features on undergraduates' learning from instructional Web materials and investigated learners' beliefs regarding Web-based instruction. Achievement results indicated that if overall content and structure are sound, minor differences regarding table borders and vertical spacing in text do not hinder…

Vos, Hans J. – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 1998
Formulates sequential rules for adapting the appropriate amount of instruction to learning needs in the context of computer-based instruction. Topics include Bayesian decision theory, threshold and linear-utility structure, psychometric model, optimal sequential number of test questions, and an empirical example of sequential instructional…

Keeler, Carolyn M.; Anson, Robert – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 1995
Reports research on cooperative learning strategies used in a college computer skills lab course and compares learning performance and retention of students taught via cooperative teams or traditional individual learning. Results show that both performance and retention were significantly improved with the use of cooperative learning. (Author/JMV)

Schroeder, Eileen E.; Grabowski, Barbara L. – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 1995
Describes a study of undergraduates that compared navigational study strategies, the extent of lesson coverage, and attitudes about learning with three types of hypermedia lessons to examine how learners use different types of graphical browsers in a learner-controlled hypertext system to construct personalized representations of the content…

Hythecker, Velma I.; And Others – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 1985
Describes a study that involved development and evaluation of a training module that uses computer assisted instruction and cooperative learning to facilitate acquisition of learning strategies by university students. Results reveal strategy training with the module enhanced performance on free recall tests. (MBR)

Astleitner, Hermann – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 1997
Describes three experiments with high school and college students concerning learning with ill-structured hypertext; in each study, one different kind of external learning aid (memo pads, learning time, and teaching objectives) was manipulated and examined for its effect on intentional and incidental knowledge acquisition. Findings are discussed…

Gerlic, Ivan; Jausovec, Norbert – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2001
This study investigated the cognitive processes of student teachers using electroencephalography (EEG) methodology. Results suggest that learning the computer-supported multimedia lessons was demanding yet provoked less transfer of information between brain areas and had no beneficial influence on the amount of learned material when compared to…

Taylor, Roger S.; Chi, Michelene T. H. – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2006
This study investigated potential differences in learning between two instructional activities: reading from a text and using a computer simulation. Participants were undergraduate students with limited knowledge of the domain topic (project management). Participants in both conditions (Simulation and Text) improved equally on a decontextualized,…

Cardinale, Loretta A.; Smith, Charles M. – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 1994
Discussion of the teaching of learning strategies focuses on a study of undergraduates that investigated the effects of comprehension-directed and memory-directed computer-based learning strategy training on the achievement of learning objectives. Treatment of experimental and control groups is explained, and further research is suggested.…

Steinberg, Esther R.; And Others – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 1986
This study was conducted to determine whether students would use a computer-presented organizational/memory tool as an aid in problem solving, and whether and how locus of control would affect tool use and problem-solving performance. Learners did use the tools, which were most effective in the learner control with feedback condition. (MBR)

Frasson, Claude; Aimeur, Esma – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 1996
Introduces an intelligent tutoring systems where the college-level learner deals with a teacher and a "troublemaker." Discusses the types of interaction in directive learning, peer learning and learning by disturbing; evaluates the impact of each strategy on learner self-confidence. For learners with low self-confidence, peer learning…

Brant, George; And Others – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 1991
Describes a study of undergraduates studying genetics that compared the effectiveness of a computer simulation used before and after formal instruction. Treatment of the experimental and control groups is explained, and results are reported which support the theory that the effectiveness of the simulation is dependent on the sequence of…
