Book The Impact of Computer assisted Instruction on Ninth  and Tenth grade Students

Download or read book The Impact of Computer assisted Instruction on Ninth and Tenth grade Students written by Melanie May McNeely and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With over 60 years of education reform, including the National Defense Education Act (NDEA) in 1958, Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) in 1975, and No Child Left Behind (NCLB) in 2002, the achievement gap still existed at the beginning of the 21st century, and the effectiveness of the U.S. public school system continued to be questioned. This study was conducted to examine the effect of the use of a computer-assisted instruction curriculum, Achieve 3000®, among select secondary reading students in a central Florida school district and their implications for student achievement. This study showed significant difference existed in the type of students rather than the reading program. The ANCOVA performed on all students and the ANOVAs performed for exceptional education students, males and females, free/reduced lunch and ethnic subgroups did not show a significant statistical difference in the 2012-2013 reading achievement scores. The Achieve 3000® reading program did not close the achievement gap any more than the non-Achieve 3000® reading program. Conversely, the ANOVA performed for English language learners did show a significant statistical difference between the 2012-2013 reading achievement scores. However, the effect size each question was small indicating the practical implication was also small. Ultimately, this study made a strong argument for the need for further research.

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.

Book Computer assisted Instruction in Composition

This book was released on 1986 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intended for writing teachers and administrators of middle school through college writing programs, this guide suggests how to translate approaches to teaching composition into computer assisted instruction (CAI) software. The book encourages writing teachers to see themselves as composition specialists who can team up with specialists in computer programming and educational field-testing in order to increase their own effectiveness in the classroom. Each chapter describes one step in the process of designing CAI software. The chapters discuss the following: (1) identifying assumptions about writing and pedagogy; (2) getting started on a CAI project; (3) working with a design team; (4) making pedagogical decisions about a CAI lesson; (5) integrating response and evaluation into a CAI lesson; (6) thinking about screen display; (7) field testing a CAI lesson; and (8) spreading the word about CAI software. Worksheets for each step in the design process, suitable for copying, are included. (SRT)
