"Real-Life" Reading Software and "At-Risk" Secondary Students.

Wepner, Shelley B.

Reading Horizons, v32 n4 p279-88 Apr 1992

Examines the effects of real-life reading software versus skill-based reading software on inner-city public school students. Finds that students using the real-life reading software felt significantly better than those using skill-based software about their work with the computer and themselves as readers and writers.
