The study revealed that "scores of computer-based writing were significantly higher than those of paper-based writing, indicating a better quality of the texts produced on the computer" and that "participants, irrespective of their level of computer familiarity, made fewer language errors when writing on the computer" (p. 13).
The proportionate increase of performance in group E was found to be almost double than group C. Positive correlation between the scores of computer-based formative test and the scores of summative assessment in the group of students exposed to repeated computer-based formative test indicated that the formative test affected the performance of the students in the summative assessment.
Indeed the standardized manner of administration and scoring of computer-administered rating scales may actually improve reliability and insure greater completeness of the information gathered [ 18].
The spread of broadband Internet has resulted in scores of connected computers that are, in effect, servers unto themselves.
"You could pour an unlimited amount of concrete," Mr. Wyden continued, "and add scores of additional computers in air traffic control, but until they start giving people the information that they have, so they can make travel choices on the basis of up-to-the-minute information, this problem is not going to be turned around".
Furthermore, exploring how the underlying factor structures vary between the two modes will provide valuable insight into the interpretation of test scores on computer-delivered speaking tests.
Even if the synergies were clear, bonding two companies as vast as Boeing and McDonnell Douglas, say, has proved hard (there were scores of different computer systems to untangle).
Federal grants sponsored university research that has been translated into scores of Internet and computer products.
The group has to slice and shoot its way through scores of extras and computer-generated assailants, and dodge trap doors, hidden chambers and scorpions with vocal cords -- they chatter like teenagers on cell phones -- on the way to a showdown with the Mummy himself, Imhotep (the poorly used Arnold Vosloo, who only gets to glower and flex his lats).
