This book was released on 1979-01-01 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Agency for Instructional Television (AIT) works with educational agencies in the United States and Canada as partners in the process of educational change through school television. The organization develops school television programming for consortia of state and provincial education agencies. Since 1970, it has completed nine major projects. In producing materials, the AIT uses a three phase development process. In the initiation phase, activities focus on determining needs and conceptualizing the project. In the production phase, the conceptualization is translated into designs for television programs and related printed materials, development of the materials takes place, and evaluation activities go forward. In the third phase, assimilation, the AIT assists with the integration of materials into the curricula of consortium agencies. Assimilation phase activities also include teacher inservice and orientation and community awareness programs. Appendices include a case study of the conceptualization of one programming project, a cost structure for consortium participation, some curriculum design examples, and an example of a teacher's guide. An extensive bibliography is also included. (LLS)

Download or read book Communication Economics and Development written by Meheroo Jussawalla and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2017-05-17 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Communication Economics and Development aims to determine a methodology for integrating communication variables into economic development models. The first five chapters of the book cover the theoretical issues and their conceptualization as the basis for deriving a better understanding of the role of communication in economic development. The major issues for concern are the economic variables that are endogenous to communication planning in the light of rapid advances in communication technologies. Chapters 6-9 deals with the consideration of the role of communication in national development; the international trade theory and communications; and the political economy of information in a changing international economic order. The Japanese experience in focusing on the role of communication in economic development; a model for predicting development benefits from telecommunication investment; and the role of telecommunications in developing countries are also discussed. The text further describes the impact of telecommunication and information in development planning strategy; the opportunity costs in computer conferencing during and for economic development; and the evaluation of the impact of communication on agricultural development in Nepal. The use of economic concepts in communication planning practice is also discussed.

Download or read book Technology Science Teaching and Literacy written by Kenneth P. King and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2005-12-27 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book deals with the use of technology in science teaching. The author is not, nor has ever had an intention of being a “techie. ” Rather, I spent the first decade of my professional life as a high school physics teacher, making occasional uses of technology to further student understanding and to automate my own teaching practices. During my graduate work, my interest in the use of technology continued. Catalyzed, to some extent by the increasing availability of graphical interfaces for computers, the realization struck that the computer was more and more becoming a tool that all teachers could use to support their teaching practice—not simply those with a passion for the technology itself. The rapid changes in the hardware and software available, however, frequently caused me to reflect on the usefulness of technology—if it were to change at such a rapid pace, would anyone, save for those who diligently focused on the development of these tools, be able to effectively use technology in science teaching? Was change to rapid to yield a useful tool for teachers? To address this interest, I examined the nature of science teaching during this century—using the equally fluid notion of “scientific literacy”—which formed the organizing principle for this study. The result is a examination of how technology was used to accomplishing this goal of producing scientifically literate citizens. What was observed is that technology, indeed, consistently came to the service of teachers as they attempted to achieve this goal.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many critics of American education see technology as an important tool in bringing about the kind of revolutionary changes called for in new reform efforts. Consequently, support for the use of technology to promote fundamental reform appears to be reaching a new high. Following an introduction describing elements of school reform, Chapter 2 describes how technology can support the kinds of student learning described in a model of reform presented in Chapter 1. Chapter 3 describes the ways that technology can support student learning as defined by education reformers, and Chapter 4 describes ways in which technology can support teacher efforts to promote student learning. Chapter 5 reviews the literature on the effects of technology on student learning outcomes. The final chapter deals with issues of implementation for projects attempting education reform supported by technology. Three tables and two figures summarize information about technology and reform.
