L'emploi du traitement de texte dans un cours universitaire de premiere annee portant sur la litterature francaise (The Use of Word Processing in a First-Year University Course in French Literature).

Laing, Donald; And Others

Canadian Modern Language Review, v47 n3 p477-85 Apr 1991

A study examined effects of requiring mainly nonfrancophone university freshmen to use word processing in a French literature course. Results showed students learned word processing without harmful effects on course performance, showed greater control over French spelling and grammar, and wrote more syntactically complex French. Increased confidence did not result. (13 references) (Author/MSE)
