Nikolaos Pellas – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 2026
Despite the increasing integration of generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) in education, a significant research gap exists in its comparative effectiveness against traditional instructor-led guidance in specialized humanities like philology. This quasi-experimental study compares an experimental group (EG, n = 26), using GenAI chatbots for…

Ross, John A. – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 1996
Examines how students with weak computer-mediated communication (CMC) skills fare in CMC courses that require high levels of peer interaction. Subjects were 11 male and 4 female inservice teachers. Findings indicate that students' CMC skills had only a modest impact on their participation in the course; students with less developed skills…

Mayer, Richard E. – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 1997
Gives an introduction to three articles addressing the potential value of a network of after-school computer clubs called the Fifth Dimension. The articles demonstrate improvements in computer literacy (near transfer), ability to understand arithmetic and word problems (medium transfer), and reading and mathematics achievement (far transfer).

Blanton, William E.; Moorman, Gary B.; Hayes, Bobbie A.; Warner, Mark L. – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 1997
Examines the effects of participation in the Fifth Dimension after-school computer program on far transfer achievement in the subject areas of reading and math. Provides evidence that children who participate in the Fifth Dimension master knowledge and skill structures and acquire practices that mediate their performance on global measures of…

Mayer, Richard E.; Quilici, Jill; Moreno, Roxana; Duran, Richard; Woodbridge, Scott; Simon, Rebecca; Sanchez, David; Lavezzo, Amy – Journal of Educational Computing Research, 1997
Children who attended the Fifth Dimension after-school computer club at least 10 times during the 1994-95 school year performed better on word problem comprehension tests than did non-participating children. Results support the hypothesis that experience in using computer software in the Fifth Dimension club produces measurable, resilient, and…
