Book excerpt: A pretest-posttest design was used to compare the effectiveness of computer-assisted-instruction (CAI) drill and practice with the effectiveness of same-age peer-tutor drill and practice on promoting mastery of multiplication facts. The subjects were students from three, fourth grade classes in the Reedville School District of Aloha, Oregon. Two fourth grade classes were randomly assigned to two treatment groups: CAI and same-age peer-tutoring. A third class was designated as a control group. Students in the CAI group drilled on multiplication facts independently at a computer for 10 minutes per day for 25 days. Students in the same-age peer-tutor group tutored classmates using multiplication flashcards for 5 minutes and were tutored for an additional 5 minutes for a total of 10 minutes per day for 25 days. The control group received traditional math instruction consisting of daily, one-minute, mastery tests. Drill and practice was independent and self-paced. Treatment consisted of drill and practice on multiplication facts with multipliers 0-9 and multiplicands 6-9. The pretest and posttest were computer-constructed criterion tests consisting of randomly selected multiplication facts from the treatment set. Fifty-two students began the treatment. Forty-five students completed treatment and the posttest. Analysis of variance and Tukey's multiple comparison test showed a significant difference between the CAI group (x̄ = 48.00) and control group (x̄̄ = 67.60) on the pretest. However, on the posttest, analysis of covariance revealed no significant difference among the groups (p = .05). Therefore, the null hypotheses for the study were accepted. The hypotheses predicted there would be no significant difference between the groups' mean math scores on the posttest. Although the study did not identify either CAI or same-age peer-tutoring drill and practice as more effective than the other, it did show both strategies to be equally effective in promoting mastery of basic math facts. The adjusted group means were CAI: 93.97 and same-age peer-tutoring: 93.43. In finding the two strategies to be equally effective, the study identified same-age peer-tutoring as a cost-effective alternative to CAI drill and practice. The findings have implications for staff development, curriculum planning, and for teachers' selection of drill and practice strategies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Political Economy of Education provides academically rigorous yet clear explanations of the economics and politics driving today's educational systems and how economists analyze them. The book covers a host of topics central to teaching about education and crucial to educational policy. These include how to use the tools of economic and political theory to take critical measure of education's role in social mobility and economic growth, whether good teachers can overcome social class and race achievement gaps, the effectiveness of early childhood and vocational education, and debates on school accountability and whether increasing spending on schooling improves quality. The book also explores worldwide changes in higher education, especially massification and increased stratification and privatization. Written for upper undergraduate and graduate students in economics, public policy, and education and packed with real-world examples, this is an essential text for anyone interested in gaining fresh and international perspectives on education.

This book was released on 2001 with total page 107 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of computer assisted writing instruction on the writing achievement of fourth grade students. This study took the form of a quantitative experimental study with methodology including the use of a control group and an experimental group involving baseline and post-treatment data. This involved a group of fifteen fourth grade students in the experimental group with computer access and instruction specifically pertaining to writing, while providing traditional whole language activities to the control group. Students in both groups were allocated 90 minute sessions, 3 days a week and 45 minutes, 2 days a week for writing instruction; a total of 6 hours a week. By using a pretest/post test control group design, for a period of approximately five months, it was discovered that the students (n = 15) who were instructed using computer assisted writing instruction showed no significant difference in test scores on the Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test (FCAT) Writing Examination than did the students (n = 15) who received traditional methods of writing instruction, t = .67, df = 28, p> .05. It was concluded that the computer-assisted writing instruction showed no significant difference in raising the achievement level of the participating students. In addition, there was no significant difference in attitudinal survey scores between students (n = 15) who received computer-assisted writing instruction in the experimental group and the students (n = 15) who received traditional methods of writing instruction in the control group, t = .65, df = 28, p> .05. Therefore, the null hypothesis was accepted in both areas regarding the effects of computer-assisted writing instruction.
