Abstract
Four microcomputer instructional games were used to teach mathematics to preservice elementary school teachers. Previous research indicated that non-computer games were effective at teaching mathematics to school-aged students, so the extension to microcomputer format was the primary focus. Subjects were thirty preservice teachers in a mathematics methods course during spring 1983; data on one subject was lost. Subjects were randomly assigned in equal numbers to play each of the six pairs of games. There were no important differences in learning between each game-playing group and its control group; there were slight negative effects of two of the four games.
