ICOTS 5, 1998: Tae Rim Lee A STUDY ON THE MULTIMEDIA COURSEWARE FOR INTRODUCTORY STATISTICS

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to develop computer aided instruction courseware for introductory statistics and to examine the effectiveness of this type of instruction for schooling. Following the theory of educational technology, statistics is a subject area that needs CAI for university students. The courseware of statistics developed meets this need. Using CAI, students not only receive tutoring in statistics but also get direct experience using a computer. This results in a high achievement level that is particularly effective in a group of students with diverse individual needs and very conducive to a distance education program.
