Technology and Action Research: How Effective Are Classroom Computer Minilabs?

Stellwagen, Joel B.

American Secondary Education, v28 n2 p3-9 Win 1999

An action-research project conducted at an Illinois high school found that a computer minilab program effectively encouraged 10 teachers to use computer technology in their normal classroom setting and fostered a cooperative learning environment. Teachers without minilabs disliked the arrangement. Minilab portability should be considered. (MLH)
