Differential Achievement Gains for Mathematics Computation, Concepts, and Applications with an Integrated Learning System.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Clariana, Roy B. – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 1996
Considers the effects of an Integrated Learning System (ILS) on the mathematics test scores of elementary school children. Results indicate that ILS software had its greatest effect on mathematics concepts scores, which is contrary to the commonly held opinion that mathematics software is effective primarily in drill and practice of computational…

Computer Simulations of Laboratory Experiences.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Clariana, Roy B. – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 1989
Discusses under what conditions computer simulations should be used. Considers the aspects and qualities of computer simulations used in simulating science laboratory experiments. Provides suggestions for selecting or designing simulations. Examines the idea of transfer when using simulations. (MVL)

Gender by Content Achievement in Computer-Based Instruction.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Clariana, Roy B.; Schultz, Charles W. – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 1993
Examined the possibility of gender-by-content achievement differences in computer-based instruction (CBI) in mathematics and language arts. From a study of eighth-grade students (n=50), one of the findings was a significant three-way interaction between gender and ability from the pretest to the posttest in mathematics CBI but not in language arts…

A Computer Administered CLOZE Placement Test and a Standardized Reading Test.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Clariana, Roy B. – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 1991
A learner's reading ability may be an important variable in the individualization of computer-assisted instruction. Results of a study of 101 students in grades 4 through 8 indicate that computer-mediated CLOZE reading tests adequately account for a student's reading ability and may be used prescriptively for the individualization of instruction.…
