Abstract

Computerized instruction has already affected our accepted notions of “teaching” to a considerable extent, and is certain to have increasing influence in the future. As we cultivate computerized technology into our educational systems, care must be taken to insure that these new computerized methods are in accordance with our hard-earned knowledge concerning teaching and learning. This study investigates the difference between Computer-assisted Instruction (CAI) and the more traditional lecture instruction in teaching an office technology course. Results using t-tests indicated that students in the CAI group performed better on achievement tests than those students in the lecture group. There was also a significant positive change in students' attitudes toward CAI.
