157. The Effects of Mastery, Adaptive Mastery, and Non-Mastery Models on the Learning of a Mathematical Task.

Author

Taylor, Susan S.

Abstract

Three learning models (adaptive mastery, typical mastery, and traditional non-mastery learning models) which employed different criteria for terminating computer-based practice in order to determine mastery or non-mastery of arithmetic skills were compared. The efficiency of two different sequencing arrangements (mixed and clustered) of practice items was also examined. All treatments involved the teaching of basic arithmetic skills to seventh-grade students. The adaptive mastery learning model produced the same high level of performance on both the posttest and a delayed retention test as the other two models, but requires less time, fewer practice items, and minimized overpractice. No significant differences were found between the clustered and mixed item arrangements. (Author/SD)

161. A Comparison of Two Public School Computer-Assisted Instruction Projects.

Author

Taylor, Susan S.

Abstract

A comparison of two projects involving CAI was made and the advantages and disadvantages of the approaches employed at each installation during their developmental and operational phase was made. The two projects are in Kansas City, Missouri, and Wakulla County, Florida. Both installations are located in public schools and were originally funded through Title III of the ESEA act. The original plan of the Kansas City project was to develop a series of short, half-hour, single concept enrichment lessons. Each of these lessons was designed such that a student would bypass a sequence if his performance was on the pretest indicates he had already mastered the concepts involved, thus minimizing the time spent in remedial lessons. The Wakulla County project attempted to upgrade and maintain student achievement at a satisfactory level by providing individualized instruction via CAI. Two primary goals of the project were (1) to implement computer-assisted instruction in mathematics and reading for southern rural students, and (2) develop and implement oral language materials to add standard speech patterns to the colloquial patterns of the students. The results of both methods indicated that the students held a favorable attitude toward CAI. Results in Wakulla indicated that across the board overall improvements in performance from fall 1968 to spring 1969 were attained with the most substantial increases reflecting the concentration of CAI treatment at the second and third grade levels. Both projects were particularly different with respect to staffing, operations, and a philosophy of curriculum development. This comparison emphasizes a need to visit more than one installation before forming an opinion of what CAI can and cannot do. (CK)
