How Effective Is CAI? A Review of the Research

the purpose of this review, computer assisted instruction (CAI) is de fined as the use of the computer for direct instruction of students. This includes four modes (drill-and-practice, problem-solving, simulation, and tutorial) but does not in clude computer managed instruction or the teaching of computer science. Only studies are included in which effectiveness was measured by student achievement as a result of CAI as compared with achievement result ing from other methods of instruction.
