Book History of Computing in Education

Download or read book History of Computing in Education written by J.A.N. Lee and published by Springer. This book was released on 2006-04-11 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work derives from a conference discussing the history of computing in education. This conference is the first of hopefully a series of conferences that will take place within the International Federation for Information Processing (IFIP) and hence, we describe it as the First Conference on the History of Computing in Education (HCE1). These proceedings represent a collection of works presented at the HCE1 Conference held in association with the IFIP 2004 World Computer Congress held in Toulouse, France. Contributions to this volume range from a wide variety of educational perspectives and represent activities from four continents. The HCE1 conference represents a joint effort of the IFIP Working Group 9.7 on the History of Computing and the IFIP Technical Committee 3 on Education. The HCE1 Conference brings to light a broad spectrum of issues and spans fourcontinents. It illustrates topics in computing education as they occurred in the “early days” of computing whose ramifications or overtones remain with us today. Indeed, many of the early challenges remain part of our educational tapestry; most likely, many will evolve into future challenges. Therefore, this work provides additional value to the reader as it will reflect in part the future development of computing in education to stimulate new ideas and models in educational development.

Book Learning with Information Systems

Download or read book Learning with Information Systems written by Simon Bell and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-02-01 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Learning with Information Systems the author takes the developing world as the context and through a series of case studies develops a commonly used systems analysis methodology. He demonstrates how this methodology can evolve and adapt as new ideas become prominent. Issues of sustainability of information systems, participation in systems design and user ownership of systems are all examined. This book does not attempt to be prescriptive for all contexts nor does it focus on any particular technology. It addresses the essential questions and promises practical approaches which will help in the avoidance of the worst forms of disaster associated with the planning of information systems for developing countries.

Book Interactive Learning Through Visualization

Download or read book Interactive Learning Through Visualization written by Steve Cunningham and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains a selection of papers presented at the Computer Graphics and Education '91 Conference, held from 4th to 6th Apri11991, in Begur, Spain. The conference was organised under the auspices of the International Federation for Information Processing (IPIP) Working Group 5.10 on Computer Graphics. The goal of the organisers was to take a forward look at the impact on education of anticipated developments in graphics and related technologies, such as multimedia, in the next five years. We felt that at a time when many educational establishments are facing financial stringency and when major changes are taking place in patterns of education and training, this could be valuable for both educators and companies developing the technology: for educators, because they are often too bogged down in day-to-day problems to undertake adequate forward planning, and for companies, to see some of the problems faced by educators and to see what their future requirements might be.

Book Student Modelling  The Key to Individualized Knowledge Based Instruction

Download or read book Student Modelling The Key to Individualized Knowledge Based Instruction written by Jim E. Greer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-29 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the result of a NATO sponsored workshop entitled "Student Modelling: The Key to Individualized Knowledge-Based Instruction" which was held May 4-8, 1991 at Ste. Adele, Quebec, Canada. The workshop was co-directed by Gordon McCalla and Jim Greer of the ARIES Laboratory at the University of Saskatchewan. The workshop focused on the problem of student modelling in intelligent tutoring systems. An intelligent tutoring system (ITS) is a computer program that is aimed at providing knowledgeable, individualized instruction in a one-on-one interaction with a learner. In order to individualize this interaction, the ITS must keep track of many aspects of the leamer: how much and what he or she has leamed to date; what leaming styles seem to be successful for the student and what seem to be less successful; what deeper mental models the student may have; motivational and affective dimensions impacting the leamer; and so ono Student modelling is the problem of keeping track of alI of these aspects of a leamer's leaming.

Book Upon What Does the Turtle Stand

Download or read book Upon What Does the Turtle Stand written by Aharon Aviram and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-03-06 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together the reflections of independent researchers from around the world. Sixteen authors from fourteen countries present their views on the use of information and communication technology (ICT) in education, offering valuable insights through the examination of current issues relevant to the future of education. What will education be in tomorrow’s world? How can ICT be used without rendering education a purely technical process? How can we succeed the renovation of educational subjects without transforming them into technical objects? The introductory chapter of this publication guides us into the essays through a classification organized by the editors to illustrate different attitudes to technologies: • The ‘Globalizers’ see the integration of ICT and education as a means of enhancing the competitiveness of their society in a global economy; • The ‘Reformists’ see it as a means of bringing about significant change in didactics in the various disciplines, and even in the ‘basics’ of education; • The ‘Humanists’ consider technologies as possible catalysts for changing the aims and values of education from learni- oriented to humanistic; • The ‘Heretic’ sees values and aims as being determined exclusively by technology, and economy and culture as s- products of the technology-guided process. He therefore does not see any sense in interrogations as to which aims should guide us in integrating technology with education. Obviously, some arguments stretch across all four categories without completely matching any so-called type.
