Janicki, Thomas N.; Gebauer, Judith; Yaylacicegi, Ulku – Information Systems Education Journal, 2011
This research builds on the behavior learning theory that suggests a response from a student, followed by a quick feedback and another response from the student will increase student learning. An experiment was performed that allowed students to submit particular homework projects (response) early. The early submissions were graded promptly and…

Wilkinson, Kelly – Delta Pi Epsilon Journal, 2006
Students believe that they are computer literate. When asked, students perceive themselves as skilled in a variety of computer applications. This research compares students' perceptions with their reality. Students did not perform well on pretests of Microsoft Office, but improved their posttests scores with instruction. The study also examined…

Johnson, Glenn T.; Leonard, Rosemary J. – Higher Education Research and Development, 1994
A study investigated the degree to which changes made in a traditional introductory computer course addressed student expectations. The revised curriculum focused on computer literacy and computer awareness rather than programming skills. Evaluation suggests that, although neither course realized student expectations fully, the revised course…
