The Media Effects Question: "Unresolvable" or Asking the Right Question.

Morrison, Gary R.

Educational Technology, Research and Development, v42 n2 p41-44 1994

Critiques articles by Robert Kozma (IR 529 138) and Richard Clark (EJ 294 173) on the influence of media on learning. The author argues that Clark and Kozma are raising different questions and suggests that researchers focus on the effectiveness of whole units of instruction rather than on individual components.
