An evaluation of the use of mini-computers for computer assisted instruction in allied health curricula.

ABSTRACT

This paper reports the results of an evaluation of computer assisted instruction in a school of allied health technologies. This evaluation was conducted to determine how students rated computer assisted instruction as a learning tool. Areas rated were (1) ease of use of computer hardware, (2) ease of use of computer instructions, (3) difficulty of content and (4) learning value. The results of 1,507 student questionnaires were tabulated. Student evaluation was favorable in all areas. Comments by the students have led to revisions in specific programs.
