R.T. Sivaram, R. Ramar. (2014). Effect of CAI on Achievement of LD Students in English. li-manager's Journal of English Language Teaching, Vol. 4, No. 1, January-March. https://eric.ed.gov/?id=EJ1068387

q2 · i? · causal · r2

Quasi-experimental pre-test/post-test study of 25 experimental-group LD students taught through CAI for thirty working days; Table 2 reports a t-value of 11.26, significant at the 0.01 level, with means rising from "20.2 in pre-test" to "42.4 in post-test".

"From a meagre mean score of 20.2 in pre-test, they could gain an impressive mean score of 42.4 in post-test, which is more than double the pre-test mean score."
