A Study Of Computer Use In A Graduate School Of Business, Henry C. Jr. Lucas, David B. Montgomery, Jean Claude Larreche

Research Collection Lee Kong Chian School Of Business

In the past six years, U.S. business schools have greatly expanded their use of computers in teaching and research. In 1966, only 11 percent of the business schools required student proficiency in programming; by 1970, the total had risen to 62 percent and is undoubtedly higher today. In 1971, the Graduate School of Business (GSB) at Stanford acquired a dedicated time-sharing system to replace the time-sharing services provided by the Stanford Computation Center (SCC). A study of computer usage in the GSB and of the impact of the dedicated time-sharing system was con- ducted; detailed results may be found in. …

The Effect Of An Administration Of Audio-Visual Aids On The Attitudes Of Geometry Students Toward Mathematics, Kirk Quistorff

All Master's Theses

This paper presents an experiment to determine the effect of an administration of audio-visual aids on the attitudes of geometry students. It was hypothesized that the experimental group would make a significant improvement in their attitude toward mathematics. The control group had eight-two students and the experimental group had forty-six students. In the control class no audio-visual aids other than the overhead projector were used. The results did not verify the hypothesis and the author concluded that more research was needed.

An Experimental Study Of Two Audio-Visual Aids Used In Beginning Drafting, Ronald Norman West

All Master's Theses

This paper presents a study designed to identify the effectiveness of two visual aids, the chalkboard, and the overhead projector, as they are used in a junior high drafting program. The students involved in the study were randomly selected and placed in two treatment groups and one control group. The experiment did not prove that either visual aid was better than the other, but indicated that the overhead projector had more advantages and greater versatility than the chalkboard.

A Comparison Of Media Between The Linear And Broadview Approach In Self-Instruction, Leslie T. Cotter

All Master's Theses

For this study, two groups of students were exposed to two different sets of self-instructions using a linear and broadview format. Each student was then asked to demonstrate, without the aid of instructions, operation of three machines selected by a laboratory assistant. The present study is investigative in nature and seeks to clarify the following question: whether a difference exists in student performance using linear or a broadview format.
