The effects of judgmental and non-judgmental computer assisted instruction (CAI) feedback on the self-esteem and mathematics achievement of remedial level junior high school students were examined. Each of 44 eighth-grade mathematics students was given a self-esteem pretest questionnaire, completed a basic mathematics facts drill and practice CAI…

This study examined the effects of judgmental and nonjudgmental computer assisted instruction on self-esteem and mathematics achievement of remedial junior high students. Although no statistically significant differences were found between treatment groups, this was probably due to study's short-term nature, rather than absence of relationship…

Results of a study of 117 eighth-grade math students suggest: mastery-based methods were more effective than non-mastery methods in improving lesson achievement; computer-based and traditional delivery systems are of greatest value when complementing each other; and student attitudes were only nominally affected by various treatments.

Compares the performance and attitudes toward instruction of eighth graders working individually on a computer-based sex education lesson with those of learners working cooperatively in dyads. Interactions on an attitude measure were detected among instructional method, gender, and ability, and results indicate that cooperative instruction yielded…
