[Air-l] Research Validating K-8 Web Based Instruction?

[MSJANEW at aol.com]

My name is Matthew Newman. I am developing a web-based sports science 
curriculum for children in grades K-8 called Sports Smarts. This program is geared 
towards providing sports health and safety information for children using online 
activities, videos, and games.

I am working with Health World Children's Museum in Barrington, Illinois. I 
am writing you to ask if you know any recent research studies that measure and 
validate the effectiveness of web-based science and health education for 
children. 

In particular, I am wondering if you know of any studies that seek to 
validate the effectiveness of grade K-6 web-based instruction. Since video will be a 
component of Sports Smarts, studies validating the effectiveness of web-based 
video would also be very helpful. If you have any information in these areas, 
can you let me know what they might be?

Thanks, 

Matthew Newman
