The Effectiveness of Computer-Based Adult Education: A Meta-Analysis.
Kulik, Chen-Lin C.; And Others
Journal of Educational Computing Research, v2 n2 p235-52 1986
A meta-analysis of findings from 24 controlled evaluations showed computer-assisted instruction (CAI) usually has positive effects on adult learners, i.e., it raised examination scores and reduced instruction time. Reliable conclusions could not be reached on CAI's long-term cognitive effects because of small number of studies investigating such effects. (Author/MBR)
