An Investigation of the Reinforcing Effects of Feedback on Computer-Assisted Instruction.
Thorkildsen, Ron J.; Reid, Robert
Journal of Special Education Technology, v9 n3 p125-35 Spr 1989
The reinforcing characteristics of bonus feedback were investigated, as 130 children from both regular and resource classrooms in grades two-four were taught time-telling using a microcomputer-controlled videodisc system. No significant differences were found among five feedback conditions used, indicating that bonus feedback had little positive effect. (JDD)
