This contribution explores computer-assisted learning (CAL) from a number of different angles. First, it discusses the many synonyms that exist for the use of information and communication technologies (ICTs) in education. Within these synonyms are concepts which often hide subtle but important differences from both a technological as well as a pedagogical/educational point of view. It proceeds with a short history of CAL. While CAL as an entity was first used in the early 1960s of the previous century (1960s), the concept underlying its use has roots dating back to the beginning of that century. The third and final part will focus on the effectiveness of CAL in education which will lead to an adaptation of the current definition.

EXPLORING THE USE OF COMPUTER-AIDED INSTRUCTION IN REMEDIAL CLASSES

Profile image of Lowell Gabunilas

2020, Science International

Remedial classes are important interventions to help learners catch up to their peers. Remedial classes usually do not follow the same setting and scheduling as regular classes and, because of this, there is a need to utilize innovative instructions. This study explored the use of three different modalities of computer-aided instruction (CAI) in remedial classes namely, Powerpoint presentation (PPT), Audiovisual presentation (AVP), and PhET simulation (PhET). The results show that the pretest and posttest scores of the students in remedial classes using CAI's differ significantly, with the scores under PPT having the best improvement. The results promote the advantage of using CAI's in remedial classes.

The effects of Process-Oriented Guided Inquiry Learning (POGIL) on students' performance and attitudes in Grade 12 was examined. A quasi-experimental research design was used in the classes; one in POGIL and the other in non-POGIL class. The instruments were composed of an academic assessment and an attitude survey. Descriptive statistics, t-test, and analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) were used. Results revealed a significant difference in the academic performance of students in a POGIL from those in the non-POGIL class. The attitudes of students in POGIL was significantly higher than those in the non-POGIL class.

The purpose of this study was to determine the efficacy of Technology-Driven Intervention in improving science learning among Alegria National High School students at risk of dropping out. This study focused on two groups of twenty (20) Grade 8 Students at Risk of Dropping Out. Ten SARDOs served as the control group and received work text intervention, while the other ten SARDOs received technology-driven intervention. Both groups performed POORLY in Science knowledge at the start of the experiment, according to the results. T-test results also revealed that both the work text intervention and the technology-driven intervention were effective in the learning of SARDOs. The mean gain scores of SARDOs that used technology-driven intervention, on the other hand, were significantly higher. The study concludes that a technology-based intervention is more effective than a traditional intervention for students at risk of dropping out.

ABSTRACT This study investigated the effect of Physics Education Technology (PhET) Simulation as a teaching method in improving the proficiency level of Grade 10 students in Physics. The subjects of the study were the sixty (60) randomly selected Grade 10 students of the General Santos City Sped Integrated School, which were classified into two groups: the experimental group and the control group. The study employed the quasi-experimental method of research specifically made use of the Pre-test-Post-test Non-Equivalent Group Design. Results of the study showed significant difference in the pretest and posttest of both the control group (t=13.58, ρ=.000) and the experimental group (t=22.171, ρ=.000). These indicate that both the lecture method and the PhET simulation method are effective methods in teaching Physics. However, when the difference in the mean gain score of the control group (13.87) and the experimental group (18.43) were compared using t-test, the t-value obtained is 3.468 while the ρ-value is .001. Since ρ<.05, then the difference is significant. This means that in terms of gained knowledge in Physics, there is greater learning achieved by the experimental group which was exposed to PhET Simulation method than the control group which is exposed to the lecture method. Thus, the PhET simulation method is more effective in teaching Physics than the lecture method based on their mean gain scores which showed significant difference.

In this article, investigations were done on the students' expectations in Physics through self-study. The self-study methods used in this research were self-study using book modules and multimedia modules. This is because epistemology has often been the hidden curriculum as compared to the content (conception) in curriculum. Moreover , so on the expectations in the field of Physics. Recent studies have encouraged further dwelling into the hidden curriculum such as the field of Physics. In this paper, the research used pre-test and post-test experimental design. A total of 387 respondents from three secondary schools were involved. The Maryland Physics Expectations Survey was used to evaluate the respondents' expectations in Physics. Furthermore, this research evaluates students' expectations in Physics after they self-studied through book modules and multimedia module with minimum guidance from teachers. Data obtained were then analyzed using the percentage of favourable/unfavourable responses and inferential statistical analysis test. Results show that there is no significant difference between respondents who did sel f-study by using book modules and respondents who did self-study by using a multimedia module. This further indicates that Physics educators should not only stress on the content in curriculum but place more effort in guiding students on the expectations in the subject of Physics through six dimensions that are independent, coherent, concept, Mathematical links, reality links and effort.

The cooperative learning (CL) is an advanced instructional approach that uses different motivational procedures to make instruction significant and learners more responsible. This study aimed to investigate the effects of cooperative learning on students&#39; achievement in chemistry among the advanced level in 12-year basic education schools; it engaged a quasi-experimental design with one treatment group and a comparison group (control); the first applied cooperative learning in teaching organic chemistry while in the control group, organic chemistry was taught by the conventional teaching methods (CTM). A sample of 257 students participated in the study. The data collected used an organic Chemistry Achievement Test, and its data were analyzed using SPSS version 23.0 and MS Excel 2016. The ANCOVA results showed that learners taught using cooperative learning achieved better than their counterparts in the control group (F=78.07, df=1, 256, p

The study investigated the comparative effects of powerpoint and video instructional packages on Christians Religious Studies (CRS) students' academic achievement in Edo State, Nigeria. One research question and one null hypothesis were used. Quasi-experimental design of pretest, post-test non-equivalent control group design was employed. The population consisted of 1,363 SS2 students offering CRS in Uhunmwode Local Government Area of Edo State, Nigeria and the sample size was 126 SS2 students drawn from three intact classes of three coeducational schools out of the 53 secondary schools in the study area. The instrument Christian Religious Studies Achievement Test (CRSAT) was used for data collection. Data collected were analyzed using mean to answer the research question and Analysis of Covariance (ANCOVA) to test the hypothesis. The results revealed that students taught CRS using power-point instructional package (PIP) significantly achieved better than their counterparts taught using either video instructional package (VIP) or conventional instructional medium (CIM). This implies that PIP is an effective and an alternative medium to enhance students' academic achievement in CRS. Therefore, recommendation was made that the stakeholders in education especially in Edo State should organize training workshops to improve CRS teachers' skills in the use of PIP.

Presentation Transcript

Computer Assisted Learning “Computer-assisted learning (CAL) is to convey a vast amount of information in a very short period of time. It is a powerful method of reinforcing concepts and topics first introduced to you through your textbook, and discussion in the classroom. Computer-assisted learning enables you in a powerful way to comprehend complex concepts.”

Characteristics Self-Paced This unique characteristic enables learners to move as slowly or as quickly as they like. Material included in the program can be reviewed again and again, as many times as the students require, without any consequences or set backs from the program. This also helps eliminate the negative reinforcement of students’ possible lack of mastery of previously taught instructional material.

Contd…… Self-Directed This describes the ability of learners to decide what they want to learn, and in what order they want to learn it, based on their unique learning abilities and characteristics, in order to benefit, enhance, and individualize the learning process for students.

Contd…… Use of Various Senses Computer assisted Instruction (CAI) uses computers and various forms of technology that allow students to process instructional material using a variety of different senses. The more senses, or learning channels through which information is processed, the easier it is for students to remember and learn that information.

PURPOSES OF CAI Learning Rate- It is found that CAI enhances student learning rate. Student learning rate has proven to be as much as forty percent faster with CAI than with traditional instruction. Retention of Learning-According to researchers, student scores on initial tests and delayed tests indicate that students instructed using CAI retain more content than if they had been instructed using traditional instruction only. Attitudes- A lot of the research examining CAI strategies and their effects on student achievement and learning outcomes simultaneously observes how student attitudes are effected by this instructional strategy. This has led many researchers to the consensus that using CAI strategies will lead to more positive student attitudes than conventional instruction.

Contd… Locus of Control-Students instructed using CAI strategies have more of an internal sense of self-efficacy and ability to control their own learning. Attendance- Students had better attendance when instructed using CAI strategies. Motivation and Time on Task-Studies show that students instructed by the use of CAI strategies have higher rates of time spent on task in class than students instructed using traditional instruction only. Cooperation and Collaboration-Cooperative and positive social behaviors are greater among students instructed using CAI strategies.

Contd…… Variety of Media The utilization of technology and computers by this strategy encourages student learning by providing a constantly stimulating environment and promotes enthusiasm by presenting academic content in a way that is interactive, enjoyable and relatable for students. Students are exposed to different types of media that they otherwise may not have experienced or interacted with.

PROCESS OF CAI & CAL Choose a relevant topic. Decide the cognitive level of the students, aimed by the module i.e knowledge, understanding, or problem-solving. Decide the computer assisted learning mode to be used. DevelopCAL sequence in the forms of frames. Introductory frame gives directions to the learner. Learning frame presents the matter to the learner. Test frame tests the learners and gives appropriate feedback. Pre-validate the CAL by sharing them with peers and students and get feedback. Too easy, rigid, difficult parts need to be revised. Get the written CAL module converted to a computer program. Do post-validation of the CAL program and make corrections if needed. Release CAL unit for learners to use and learn.
