“…They reported that their meta-analysis showed that CAI is an effective intervention for improving students' academic achievement. Christmann, Lucking, & Badgett (1997) also contended that the result of their meta-analysis study lends support to the assumption that CAI effects vary among the different subject areas. For example, "it appears to have its strongest effect among science students; whereas its effects are weaker in mathematics, and weakest in the area of English" (p. 292).…”

“…For example: In a meta-analysis study, Christmann, Badgett, and Lucking (1997) compared the academic achievement of students in Grades 6 through 12 who received traditional instruction or traditional instruction supplemented with computer-assisted instruction (CAI) across eight curricular areas. From the 42 conclusions, they found an overall mean effect size of 0.21, indicating that on average, students receiving traditional instruction supplemented with CAI attained higher academic achievement than did the 58.2% of those receiving only traditional instruction.…”

This study was conducted to examine the promising practice of using technology in teaching math and science in a charter high school in California. The research employed an in-depth qualitative case study method. The main participants were principals, lead teachers, teachers, and support staff. Interviews, observations, and archival documents were the main data collection tools. The study found that the practice of using technology in teaching by the school, Center for Advanced Research and Technology (CART), has lead to positive educational outcomes. These include increased student achievement in standardized test scores, increased motivation, growth in mean GPA, less behavior problems from students, and improved school attendance by students. Implications for policy and practice were discussed.

“…CAI includes more advanced hardware and software technology, and allows for greater student interaction, and greater stores of information (Christmann, Badgett, & Lucking, 1997). There are many programs available that can assist students' education, such as discrete educational software (DES), integrated learning systems (ILS), computer-assisted instruction (CAI) and computer-based instruction (CBI) (Murphy et al, 2002).…”

The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship in achievement gap between English language learners (ELLs) utilizing computer-assisted instruction (CAI) in the classroom, and ELLs relying solely on traditional classroom instruction. The study findings showed that students using CAI to supplement traditional lectures performed better than the students relying solely on traditional classroom instruction. In addition, using CAI to supplement traditional lectures helped the charter schools to close the educational achievement gap of their students. Based on the findings, there is need for teachers to move past traditional learning, and learn new technology skills in order to incorporate sound technology-enhanced instructional strategies to support student learning.
