Students' experiences in guided computer-based learning: A progressive evaluation

This study investigated students’ experiences in two types of instructional strategies (i.e., fully-guided and partially guided) and their learning experience patterns from the beginning towards the end of the computer-based interactions. An empirical study was performed on 41 students from a publi...
