Peer reviewedPeterson, Kenneth D.; Allen, Judy Edwards – Journal of Research on Computing in Education, 1992
Provides several examples of ways that microcomputers can be used to enhance school teacher evaluation. Uses of computers by teachers to develop customized records and data presentation and use of computers in research on student evaluation are also considered. A sample computer program for statistical testing of student achievement data is…

Peer reviewedMadeo, Laurence A.; Bird, David A. – Journal of Research on Computing in Education, 1990
Discussion of the benefits of allowing programers to use their own words in programing focuses on a study of graduate students that tested whether an experimental group who specified their own operation codes performed better than a control group who used fixed codes. The results of regression analyses are discussed, and future research needs are…

Peer reviewedAyersman, David J. – Journal of Research on Computing in Education, 1996
Synthesizes the research on hypermedia-based instruction while providing a meaningful historical and conceptual framework for categorizing the research to date. Research relating to individual differences, attitudinal measures, systems analysis, and performance is examined, and concomitant changes in pedagogy are also addressed. Contains 98…

Peer reviewedPalumbo, David B.; Reed, W. Michael – Journal of Research on Computing in Education, 1989
Discussion of the use of microcomputers in education focuses on the use of microcomputers for evaluation purposes. A study that collected performance data on both college students and the evaluation instrument is described, reliability and validity of the test are discussed, and the use of microcomputers to redesign instructional systems is…

Peer reviewedMellon, Constance A. – Journal of Research on Computing in Education, 1999
Explores the role of technology in current educational practice, based on conflicting perceptions of two major theorists in the field of instructional design. Examines four questions extracted from their ongoing debate on technology-based learning, focusing on the following: whether presence of technology implies learning, learner's role, whether…

Peer reviewedSwan, Karen; And Others – Journal of Research on Computing in Education, 1990
Analyzes results of a study that investigated the efficiency of computer-based instruction (CBI) for teaching remedial skills in reading and mathematics to educationally disadvantaged students in grades 3 through 10. Test results from Degrees of Reading Power (DRP) and Metropolitan Achievement Tests (MAT) are compared, and further research is…
