The study was designed to discover how community college students used the available learner‐control features of the TICCIT computer‐assisted instruction system. Sixty‐seven students met the criteria for course completion; 81 were non‐completers. A log tape record was kept of the keypresses made by the subjects as they progressed through the topics of the lesson selected for study. The sequences of keypresses resulted in the classification of nine different strategy patterns which were analysed by means of chi‐square contingency tables.
The findings were that community college students did make use of the learner‐control options presented to them by TICCIT to develop learning strategies. However, no evidence was found that students used a pattern consistently throughout the lesson.
