Time Management Skill Training and Procedures for Increasing Student Efficiency in a Computer-Managed Instructional Environment.
Dobrovolny, Jacqueline L.; And Others
This project designed and developed a specialized student skill module for providing rudimentary time management skills, and implemented and evaluated the effectiveness of this skill module for reducing course completion times and promoting positive student attitudes in the context of a computer-based progress management system. Evaluation subjects were Air Force trainees in a course taught under the Advanced Instructional System. Results of the 2-phase evaluation indicated that the combination of time management skill training plus progress management procedures reduced completion times by 11.2 percent as compared to a control condition having neither of these components, and by approximately nine percent as compared to a condition having only the progress management component. References and evaluation data are appended. (Author/JEG)
