Sigal's Ineffective Computer-Based Practice of Arithmetic: A Case Study.
Hativa, Nira
Journal for Research in Mathematics Education, v19 n3 p195-214 May 1988
A student was observed practicing arithmetic with a computer-assisted instruction (CAI) system. She enjoyed practice and believed that it helped. However, she consistently failed to solve problems on the computer that she could do with pencil and paper. This paper suggests reasons for her problems and draws implications for CAI. (Author/PK)
