This paper reports results of a study designed to measure the long‐term impact of computer supported instruction in an introductory business statistics course. Very modest behavioral outcomes were found. Computer supported instruction led to strictly short‐term positive attitudinal change toward computers and their value, strictly long‐term positive attitudinal change toward quantitative methods and their value, and sustained positive attitudinal change toward computers as a teaching aid.
