Predictor Variables in Computer Assisted Language Learning.
Clark, Stephen K.
Aspects of Educational and Training Technology Series, v25 p145-49 1992
Investigates several instruments measuring intelligence and prior conceptual knowledge/achievement to determine how well they predict outcomes in computer assisted language learning. Concludes that a non-verbal intelligence test was a significant predictor, but that prior conceptual knowledge of course content was low. Level of prior achievement measured by a unified English placement exam had the strongest predictive power. (PEN)
