This study investigated the effects of sequence and synthesis prescriptions from the Elaboration Theory by teaching the parts of a microcomputer system based on a parts-conceptual structure. A 2x3 factorial design was used which incorporated two sequences, general-to-detailed and detailed-to-general, and three levels of synthesizer, i.e., no…

Nishikawa, Sue – 1988
This study investigated the effects of two factors on learner performance during computer-assisted instruction: locus of control, and varied feedback strategies. It was hypothesized that learners who attribute their successes and failures to internal events (Internals) will perform best under delayed feedback conditions, while those who attribute…

Curtis, Ruth V.; Reigeluth, Charles M. – 1983
Focusing on the achievement and motivational effects of analogies of varying enrichment levels when used with abstract, unfamiliar, and difficult content, this study examined their effects on instruction at the recall and application levels using content consisting of both concepts and principles. The subjects were 123 eighth-grade science…

Hannafin, Michael J. – 1987
The effects of cognitive and behavioral orienting activities and practice on student learning of cued and uncued information were examined in this study. The subjects were 54 grade 9 students (28 males and 26 females), who were classified as high or low ability based on the verbal intelligence estimate of the Iowa Test of Basic Skills. These…

Darwazeh, Afnan N.; Reigeluth, Charles M. – 1982
This study examined the effects of the type of adjunct questions (use-a-generality, remember-a-generality, and remember-an-instance) and the position of these questions either before the relevant text passage (pre-questions) or after it (post-questions) on the three corresponding performance levels of learning. The subjects were 74 eighth-grade…

Williams, Douglas C.; Hemstreet, Susan; Liu, Min; Smith, Vickie Dunlevy – 1998
This study investigated the use of tools and design features as employed in a problem-based learning (PBL) environment and their effectiveness on seventh grade students' learning of science concepts. Specifically, the study examined: (1) the effect of the computer-supported PBL environment on the achievement of middle school students; (2) the…
