The Effects of Text-Based and Graphics-Based Software Tools on Planning and Organizing of Stories.
Bahr, Christine M.; And Others
Journal of Learning Disabilities, v29 n4 p355-70 Jul 1996
This study compared the effects of two computer-based writing tools (text-based "FrEd Writer" and graphics-based "Once Upon a Time") on the story-writing skills of nine students (grades four through eight) with language-related learning disabilities. Group results did not clearly favor either tool; however, individual differences suggested that use of computer-presented planning features should be linked to student needs. (Author/DB)
