Abstract
The relative effectiveness of instruction presented over one versus two communication channels was investigated. Subjects were 36 undereducated adults, and the instructional software consisted of a computer assisted instruction program in numeration. The instructional delivery mechanism was an IBM 1500 instructional system. Subjects instructed through one sensory modality (visual) learned more than did subjects instructed through two modalities (visual and auditory), although the difference between amount learned for both groups was not significant.Keywords
