Meskill, Carla; Swan, Karen
Journal of Educational Computing Research, v18 n4 p339-67 1998
Examines how software designed to complement resource-based approaches to reading and writing ("Kid's Space") fared in four elementary classrooms. Results of the pilot study indicate that given the right conditions, children write creatively in response to visual and auditory stimuli. Effective methods of integrating and valuing online work are essential for the software to be used as intended. (Author/AEF)
