Download or read book The Computer the Writer and the Learner written by Noel Williams and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computers are gradually infiltrating all stages of the writing process. Increasingly, teachers, writers, students, software developers, technical authors, and computer scientists need to learn more about the effective use of computers for writing. This book discusses how computers can help support writing. It explores the issues associated with using computers to train and help writers, concentrating on computational and user aspects and reviewing practical, economic and institutional issues. Noel Williams balances theoretical and practical concerns, to meet the needs of researchers and practising trainers of writing. There is also a brief evaluation available software products, together with advice about the major considerations and pitfalls of working on custom-made software. The book is based on five years of research by the Communication and Information Research Group (CIRG) at Sheffield City Polytechnic into the value of computer-based approaches to training and helping writers. The work was funded and supported by the Training Agency, IBM, AT&T, Rolls Royce, NAB and GEC. The Computer, the Writer and the Learner is for people who are using, or are thinking of using, computers to teach or support writing, and for designers of computer-based writing systems. Many such people are unaware of the nature and use of existing systems, and of the possibilities they offer. Developers often lack detailed knowledge of other projects and of the range of users' needs. Although the bias of the book is towards the teacher, trainer and student, most of the content deals with issues that developers will want to know about.
Download or read book Computers Composing written by Jeanne W. Halpern and published by SIU Press. This book was released on 1984 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intended to (1) acquaint teachers with the potential of computers, (2) show them what changes writers may have to make in their composing habits, and (3) inform teachers of the changes they may have to make in course syllabi to prepare students for the demands of the electronic world, this book examines the impact of technology on composition instruction. The first chapter discusses the capabilities and rapidly growing use in the business and professional world of such electronic technology as telecommunication systems and audio and electronic mail systems. The second chapter distills information about dictation and word processing systems from an extensive review of research literature and from interviews with computer users and trainers at various business sites across the country. Based on this, the third chapter outlines the curricula required to enable students to be effective composers at the computer. The fourth chapter contains forecasts of the kinds of research still needed for teachers to develop fruitful programs and strategies in the composition classroom. Appendixes include materials from the interviews, and information on audio mail systems and dictation processes. (HTH)
Download or read book Computers in the Writing Classroom written by Dave Moeller and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For all students, the ability to write, to use a word-processing program, and to unite the two skills in a synergistic blend of form and content has become a key factor in achieving academic success. This book presents teachers with a framework for helping them help students achieve this success. Divided into two parts, the book provides teachers with guidance for incorporating computers into the writing classroom and for making computers "the" essential tool for writing and writing instruction. The first part of the book, "Theory and Research," discusses the theoretical underpinnings of computer-assisted writing instruction, and the second part, "Practice," features a compilation of practical suggestions for teaching writing with computers, including a wide assortment of writing lessons specifically designed to exploit the more "writer-friendly" features of the word processor. (Contains 70 references and 9 notes.) (NKA)

Download or read book How to Write Good Programs written by Perdita Stevens and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2020-07-23 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Learning to program isn't just learning the details of a programming language: to become a good programmer you have to become expert at debugging, testing, writing clear code and generally unsticking yourself when you get stuck, while to do well in a programming course you have to learn to score highly in coursework and exams. Featuring tips, stories and explanations of key terms, this book teaches these skills explicitly. Examples in Python, Java and Haskell are included, helping you to gain transferable programming skills whichever language you are learning. Intended for students in Higher or Further Education studying early programming courses, it will help you succeed in, and get the most out of, your course, and support you in developing the software engineering habits that lead to good programs.

Download or read book Writing and Thinking with Computers written by Rick Monroe and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on the premise that English and language arts curricula should be developed by committed teachers, this book is designed to help teachers use computers in a seamless way. Focusing on what and how students learn, the book is a practical and progressive guide, showing how technology can be infused into the English/language arts curriculum without abandoning reading, writing, thinking, listening, and speaking. The introduction to the book provides the philosophical framework and rationale for an application-based computer curriculum to teach writing and thinking. The first chapter presents sample computer writing and thinking lessons that range from the simple to the sophisticated. The second chapter explains how to set up and manage a local area network, a powerful learning environment. The third chapter talks briefly about how to extend the uses of technology and invites the reader to imagine additional ways in which computers might extend what is already being practiced. The final chapter includes some sample lessons for teachers and administrators interested in writing across the disciplines, one of the richest uses of computer networks. A description of learning log procedures, and a list of 21 resources for teachers (books, journal articles, periodicals, and catalogs) are attached. (RS)
Download or read book Exploring Students Writing on a Computer Versus Paper and Pencil written by Letta R. Ka and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study examined how writing scores and experiences compared for upper-elementary students who composed text via Google Docs versus traditional writing with paper and pencil. The fifth-grade participants in this study completed a three week writing unit and produced a multi-paragraph opinion essay that was assessed. Participants then took part in a post survey to share their experiences, successes, and challenges in writing with their assigned writing medium. The treatment group had a nominally higher overall mean score than the control group, with writing performance scores looking similar across both groups. Data from the survey responses revealed that the treatment group edited their writing more often than the control group and that they had higher levels of engagement and more positive attitudes in writing than the control group. However, the control group revised their writing more often than the treatment group. Themes from the open-ended responses centered around the ideas of distractions, neatness, and spelling, with students citing pros and cons for both writing with paper and pencil and a computer. It's also important to note that regardless of the method students used to compose text, their writing preferences played a role in their writing experience.
