A Comparison of the Effects of Lego TC Logo and Problem Solving Software on Elementary Students' Problem Solving Skills.
Palumbo, Debra L; Palumbo, David B.
Journal of Computing in Childhood Education, v4 n3-4 p307-23 1993
Computer-based problem-solving software exposure was compared to Lego TC LOGO instruction. Thirty fifth graders received either Lego LOGO instruction, which couples Lego building block activities with LOGO computer programming, or instruction with various problem-solving computer programs. Although both groups showed significant progress, the Lego TC LOGO group scored higher on some measures of problem-solving ability. (MDM)
