Abstract

The elements of desirable research design for the evaluation of educational technolgy are discussed with reference to the context of existing research. Sources of internal invalidity, type of compared educational acitivity, and outcome measures are considered. Finally, recommendations regarding the direction of evaluation research are made. Research designs that take into account the characteristics of the learner, the software, and the taecher preferably within the framework of a model of the learning process should be adopted
