This book was released on 1986 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report describes the results of a national survey of computer supervisors in 155 public school districts that currently own microcomputers. Data from this survey were used to examine the incentive value of a variety of administrative computer policies for encouraging more widespread participation by teachers in inservice training and use of microcomputers as a tool for instruction in subject matter classes. Such policies include technical support, rewards and incentives for teachers, and the involvement of teaching staff in decisions about the implementation of microcomputer-based instruction. The report presents the conceptual framework for the study; reviews the literature on improving participation in inservice training and encouraging educational innovations; describes the survey and presents the survey results; and discusses the implications of the findings for educational research and policy. Statistical data are presented in 12 tables, the survey instrument is appended, and references are provided. (KM)

This book was released on 1984 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thirty-four papers from a 1983 conference on the use of microcomputers in special education focus on specific applications of the new technology. An overview section, section 1, includes papers on computer literacy and daily living skills, considerations for marketing software, and the role of special educators in the information age. Section 2 addresses computers in special education management, with papers on such applications as data-based behavior modification and microcomputer networks for administration and instruction. Section 3, on teacher training, includes discussions on vocational assessment and instruction and testing of generic special education concepts. Among the instructional applications considered in section 4 are computer camps, career planning, Blissymbol drill programs, and handwriting instruction. Section 5 deals with computers as tools, with papers on speech-output communication devices and alternate interface devices for physically handicapped persons. The final section, section 6, lists commercial exhibitors at the conference. Resources are categorized according to four types: general, management, instructional, and tools. (CL)

Book excerpt: A three-phase exploratory study was conducted to make available to British Columbia schools the best in microcomputer hardware, to assist project coordinators and teachers in the integration of microcomputer courseware into the established curriculum, and to evaluate the project. In the first phase, the Apple II Plus with 48K was selected for use, 12 pilot sites were chosen from the 50 proposals submitted, and inservice training was provided for teachers. The second phase concentrated on the integration of courseware into the curriculum and the development of quality curriculum-related courseware. In addition to serving as a center for the gathering and sharing of information on instructional uses of microcomputers, the project team from JEM Research developed an index of educational courseware for the Apple II, a courseware evaluation instrument for use by curriculum selection committees, and a reference manual with guidelines for courseware development. The third phase, running concurrently with the second, continued research into hardware, software, courseware, and applications; provided field liaison services; and surveyed participants to identify microcomputer uses, teacher preparedness, opinions, and perceived needs. Survey data, conclusions, and recommendations conclude the report. A literature search and a 57-item bibliography are attached. (LLS)

This book was released on 1986 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This "fastback" outlines the steps to take in computerizing school administration. After an introduction that lists the potential benefits of microcomputers in administrative offices, the booklet begins by delineating a three-step process for establishing an administrative computer system: (1) creating a district-level committee of administrators, counselors, librarians, special education teachers, at least one computer expert, and other end-users to identify school administrative functions best suited for computerization; (2) to locate appropriate computer software to accomplish the administrative tasks that have been identified; and (3) to select the hardware that will run the software that has been chosen. The second chapter, selecting software, discusses stand-alone versus integrated programs, disk operating systems, word processing, database management, spreadsheets, accounting, data analysis and graphics, and special applications. The third chapter, selecting hardware, discusses 8-bit machines, 16-bit machines, computer power, peripheral devices, and vendors. The final chapter addresses the problem of getting started and discusses consultants, establishing priorities, staff training, and the logistics of transferring to a computerized system. (TE)
