Ackerson, Linda G.; Young, Virgina E.
Research Strategies, v12 n3 p132-44 Sum 1994
A three-year study at the University of Alabama compared a traditional lecture method for teaching library research skills with a course-integrated, computer-enhanced approach by assessing each method's impact on the quality of bibliographies from engineering students' term papers. In four of the five semesters, no significant differences were observed between the experimental group and the control group. (20 references) (Author)
