q1 i? Contrary to the view that CSCL benefits apply only to older students, the editors report that the Lim study shows technology can promote important cognitive results among kindergarten students if properly structured. → Stahl 2012

q1 · i? · associational · r?

Editorial summary of Eun Mee Lim's study of computer-supported collaborative interactions among students in the computer area of their kindergarten in Korea, analyzed quantitatively and qualitatively. The finding is attributed to that article.
