Descriptors: Computer Assisted Instruction, Computer Science Education, Grouping (Instructional Purposes), Intermode Differences
Hartley, James; Davies, Ivor K. – Programmed Learning and Educational Technology, 1978
Discussion of (1) why students take notes, (2) research findings available in current literature, (3) inadequacies and omissions in the literature aimed at suggesting more profitable lines of research for future study, and (4) suggestions of guidelines for teachers and students which will more effectively exploit the potential of note taking.…

Bernard, Robert M.; Perri, Dominic G. L. – Programmed Learning and Educational Technology, 1982
A study to assess techniques for presenting information in tape-slide format compared the effectiveness of a projected viewing guide with that of a printed viewing guide or tape-slide only, using pretest and posttest to assess retention. The projected guide resulted in improved retention of information. Fifteen references are listed. (EAO)
