Abstract

The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effects of Logo programming and CAI problem-solving software on problem solving that is dependent on specialized conceptual and procedural knowledge, problem solving that is dependent on specific executive-level cognitive skills, and mathematics achievement. No significant differences were found on mathematics achievement or knowledge-dependent problem solving. However, significant differences were found on the test of executive-level problem solving, with the Logo group improving more than the CAI and control groups.
