Loading ...Children learn faster with CD ROMs
May 9th, 2008
Interesting article in yesterday’s Daily Telegraph pointing out that children learning languages performed better when using CD ROMs as opposed to traditional text books.
Researchers at the University of Durham analysed data of 1000 children split into 2 groups.
One group used traditional text books and the other used CD ROM’s.
The CD ROM group improved by 0.5 - 0.8 of a level compared to the text book group.
The Head Teacher said the school may look at other languages including Spanish and German.
