The research, which included paired 15-minute practical examinations and questionnaires, a test on basic scholastic ability, and a survey on PC experiences, was conducted with approximately 280 students at two universities who were enrolled in a computer literacy course. The results show that the most effective pair combinations included those with a small difference in basic scholarship, and a partner of the opposite sex. After the verification experiments used these pair combinations, significant difference in effectiveness has been confirmed and the effectiveness of learning based on the pair combination criteria was revealed.
