AN INVESTIGATION OF INSTRUCTIONAL TREATMENTS AND LEARNER CHARACTERISTICS IN A COMPUTER-MANAGED INSTRUCTION COURSE.

Abstract

The primary objectives of the investigation were to answer a number of important questions in regard to instructional treatments and learner characteristics in a computer-managed instruction learning environment. An evaluation was conducted in order to ascertain which of four instructional treatments produced the most efficient and effective learning. The treatments varied in terms of sequence of tasks and type of evaluation of instructional materials developed by the students in the course. Sequencing was either student selected or computer assigned while evaluation was conducted by an instructor or by means of a student-computer interaction. Analyses were conducted in order to identify and isolate specific student attitudes, personality characteristic, and background information which were related to course success. (Author)
