Tennyson, Robert D.; Buttrey, Thomas – Educational Communication and Technology: A Journal of Theory, Research, and Development, 1980
Describes a study comparing learner control and program control, and the effects of giving learners information about their achievements in relation to criterion during instruction. Success was measured in terms of posttest scores, time on task, and number of instructional examples required. References are included. (Author/BK)

Peer reviewedPopa, Opritsa D.; And Others – College and Research Libraries, 1988
Describes a study that measured undergraduate students' grasp of library concepts taught using the online catalog and the traditional card catalog, and student preferences for one system over the other. The discussion includes the comparative effectiveness of different instructional methods. (12 notes with references) (Author/CLB)

Tatsuoka, Kikumi; Birenbaum, Menucha – Journal of Computer-Based Instruction, 1981
Discusses an adaptive diagnostic test used as part of an instructional program in signed-number arithmetic on the PLATO system. Findings indicated that differences in prior and subsequent instructional methods affected the learning of more advanced materials and produced lower achievement scores on posttests. Thirty-two references are listed. (MER)

Wesley, Beth Eddinger; And Others – Journal of Computer-Based Instruction, 1985
Describes a study to determine effects of computer-assisted instruction (versus a text mode of programed instruction) and locus of control on preservice elementary teachers' computer literacy achievement. Differences in test scores of externally controlled individuals favored CAI. There were no differences between treatments when internally…

Peer reviewedCroy, Marvin J.; And Others – Journal of Research on Computing in Education, 1994
Reports on a study of 29 students of deductive logic that compared instructor-supplied and computer-supplied diagnostic feedback used with computer-assisted instruction programs. Dependent measures included exam performance, class attendance and responsiveness, and attitudes toward the instructor, computers, other students, and the course.…

Peer reviewedKulik, James A.; And Others – Computers in Human Behavior, 1985
This metaanalysis of 32 comparative studies shows that computer-based education has generally had positive effects on the achievement of elementary school pupils. However, these effects are different for off-line computer managed instruction and interactive computer assisted instruction (CAI); interactive CAI produces greater increases in student…
