Project CHILD (Computers Helping Instruction and Learning Development) is a computer-integrated instructional program for the elementary school. It provides for curriculum realignment and a restructured organization for the elementary school to facilitate the integration of technology into the classroom. This paper reports on a longitudinal evaluation of the effects of the program on student achievement. The effect was positive and statistically significant, across grades and schools, for the three areas measured: reading, mathematics, and total battery scores on standardized tests. The effects were largest for students who had been in the program more than one year, as well as for students from schools with larger minority and free-lunch populations.
