Children's Opinions of Educational Software.
Smith, David; Keep, Rosslyn
Educational Research, v28 n2 p83-88 Jun 1986
Children aged 6 to 14 years in 10 schools in southern England were interviewed to determine the criteria that children use to evaluate educational and other software. Data suggest that the children were mature and sophisticated in their judgments. Their evaluative criteria derived from the standards of mass consumer electronics (home computer games) rather than from education. (Author/CT)
