“…A C♯ interactive software application, containing a hidden embedded screen-update-delay between the time the subject manipulated the controls and the time the screen was updated, was designed. Eight different versions of instructional application were designed with the only difference being the delay (Squire, et al, 2008). A screenshot of the application is shown in Figure 1 and can be downloaded at http://www2.vmi.edu/Faculty/squirejc/Research/Fourier_Synthesis/Fourier_Synthesis.htm.…”

In a climate of shrinking educational budgets, online learning courses offer many advantages; however there are several possible problems associated with electronic learning. There may be problems associated with learning style preferences, student apathy, instructional support, accessibility, and problems with technology. This paper examines a technological problem associated with the effects of screen-update-delay and student enjoyment, student self-reported comprehension, and student objective comprehension. In particular, this paper attempts to identify the point at which longer screen updates will be detrimental to the students enjoyment and/or have a significant negative impact on the students self-reported comprehension and retention of material.
