An experiment was conducted during the spring 2001 semester to determine the effectiveness of using a computer-based training (CBT) package to cover the basic concepts of Microsoft Office 2000. Two sections were conducted using CBT and 14 sections were conducted using a traditional lecture/lab format. The students in both groups were given the same tests using an on-line assessment package. No significant differences were found between the two delivery methods.

Keywords: CBT, computer-based training, Microsoft Office 2000
