Computer-Assisted Instruction in Appalachia's Postsecondary Schools.
Lowe, Nedra; Bickel, Robert
Journal of Educational Research, v87 n1 p46-52 Sep-Oct 1993

A quasi-experimental pretest/posttest evaluation indicated students receiving CAI enjoyed a substantial advantage in the presence of a fairly broad range of control variables. (SM)
