Description
Purpose: To conduct an experimental comparison to determine if operating
instructions for ten-key business machines can be presented as
effectively by an audio-programmed system as by the traditional
method.
Method and Sources: Two levels of students, secondary and post secondary,
were divided into equal-sized control and experimental groups.
The control groups followed the traditional method; the experimental
groups were instructed by specially prepared audio
instructional tapes with a correlated program folder of examples,
exercises, and evaluations . All groups were given an achievement
test evaluating speed and accuracy in addition and
efficiency in applicable business problems.
Findings: Experimental groups achieved higher mean scores. At the .05
level of significance, there was a significant difference in
achievement in favor of the experimental group at the high
school level. Students liked the audio method. There was
indication that both student and teacher productivity increased.
