Effectiveness of Computer Simulation for Enhancing Higher Order Thinking.
Gokhale, Anu A.
Journal of Industrial Teacher Education, v33 n4 p36-46 Sum 1996
Electronics students (16 controls, 16 experimentals) designed, built, and tested an amplifier. The experimentals did so after it was designed through computer simulation (using Electronics Workbench software). The experimental group performed significantly better on problem-solving tests; both groups did the same on drill and practice tests. (SK)
