The Effect of Sequence Control on Computer Assisted Learning.

Gray, Susan H.

Journal of Computer-Based Instruction, v14 n2 p54-56 Spr 1987

Reviews study of 80 undergraduate sociology students which compared the effects of two types of sequencing in computer assisted instruction: (1) linear, or fixed, and (2) flip, or branching. Results indicate that students in the flip sequence condition performed better on comprehension measures but not on retention measures. (Author/LRW)
