Abstract
This study investigated the effects of personalized computer-based instruction (CBI) on the achievement and attitudes concerning arithmetic problems and two-step mathematics word problems of 104 middle school American students from a predominately Hispanic population. Students were randomly blocked by ability based on pretest scores to a personalized or non-personalized version of the CBI. Significant two-way interactions reflected greater pretest-to-posttest improvement for lower-ability than higher-ability students and greater pretest-to-posttest improvement on two-step problems than on arithmetic problems. A significant three-way interaction was also obtained. Student attitudes were significantly more favorable toward the personalized computer-based instruction.
