Short Essay

We conducted an evaluation of a computer-aided personalized system of instruction (CAPSI) program in two undergraduate psychology courses. The computer presented students with short essay tests on the course material and arranged for students who had satisfactorily completed various assignments to help evaluate other students' mastery of those assignments. On a questionnaire given at the end of the courses, most students indicated that they were satisfied with the use of the computer in the courses. Students most commonly cited convenience as the reason for giving the courses a favorable rating. Also, students who did well in previous courses tended to do well in the CAPSI courses.

Classroom Use

Classroom use of the Personalized System of Instruction (PSI) was investigated by sending questionnaires to three groups, early (before 1975) users of PSI, recent (after 1975) users, and current chairpersons of psychology departments. Data from all three sources suggest that fewer PSI courses are being taught, and that many depart substantially from the original PSI format.
