Effectiveness of Computer Simulation versus Lab and Sequencing of Instruction in Teaching Logic Circuits.

Gokhale, Anu A.

Journal of Industrial Teacher Education, v28 n4 p22-33 Sum 1991

Four groups of 24 undergraduates each received the following instruction on logic circuits: (1) lab, then readings; (2) computer simulation, then readings; (3) readings, then lab; and (4) readings, then simulation. Results showed that advance exposure to experiential activity (lab or simulation) aided the learning of unfamiliar technical material and enhanced posttest performance. (SK)
