Year 5 Pupils Reading an "Interactive Storybook" on CD-ROM: Losing the Plot?
Trushell, John; Burrell, Clare; Maitland, Amanda
British Journal of Educational Technology, v32 n4 p389-401 Sep 2001
This study examined whether small groups of grade 5 students in a London primary school, without teacher supervision, progressed linearly through an interactive storybook on CD-ROM, and whether such diversions as cued animations affected pupil comprehension. Results showed students' recall of the storyline was poor. (Author/LRW)
