Bangert-Drowns, Robert L.; And Others – Journal of Computer-Based Instruction, 1985
Describes a meta-analysis of 42 controlled evaluations on effectiveness of computer-based education (CBE) in secondary schools. Results indicate computer-assisted and managed instruction and CBE used with disadvantaged students was generally effective, while computer-enriched instruction was less effective in raising student examination scores.…

Federico, Pat-Anthony – Journal of Computer-Based Instruction, 1982
To determine whether individual differences in student achievement and learning rate are reduced or eliminated by mastery instruction, 166 navy trainees who completed a computer-managed course in basic electricity and electronics were cluster analyzed using 24 measures of cognitive characteristics. Discriminant analyses were computed between two…

Jamison, Robert N.; Lovatt, Keith F. – Journal of Computer-Based Instruction, 1983
Reports results of project which investigated effects of computer-assisted instruction (CAI) on the best and worst behaved and best and worst achievers among 120 English eighth graders. Results suggest that CAI is particularly beneficial for high achievers and delinquent students because of the individualized nature of the instruction. (EAO)

Federico, Pat-Anthony – Journal of Computer-Based Instruction, 1983
Describes changes in cognitive correlates of learning as naval trainees advanced through a computer-managed series of hierarchical instructional modules requiring mastery-learning in electronics. The 24 cognitive characteristic tests measuring cognitive styles, abilities, and attitudes are listed as well as the content of the 11 modules and the…

Borton, William M. – Journal of Computer-Based Instruction, 1988
Examines the effects of systematic use of computers for the management of mathematics instruction upon mathematics performance in the elementary school. A model system for using computers to manage instruction within a student-paced, mastery-learning format is described, and treatments for the experimental and control groups are explained.…

D'Amico, Joseph J. – Journal of Computer-Based Instruction, 1990
Describes a project that was developed to determine the potential of computer-based instruction for meeting the needs of elementary students in small, rural school settings. Highlights include computer-managed instruction; the importance of local context, including administration, parents, and staff; and the impact on student achievement, school…
