The Effects of Computer-Assisted and Traditional Mastery Methods on Computation Accuracy and Attitudes.

Dalton, David W.; Hannafin, Michael J.

Journal of Educational Research, v82 n1 p27-33 Sep-Oct 1988

Results of a study of 117 eighth-grade math students suggest: mastery-based methods were more effective than non-mastery methods in improving lesson achievement; computer-based and traditional delivery systems are of greatest value when complementing each other; and student attitudes were only nominally affected by various treatments.
