Download or read book Teaching Computers To Teach written by Esther R. Steinberg and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2018-10-24 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like the original version of Teaching Computers to Teach, this updated edition presents procedures and principles for designing computer-presented instruction. It was written as a result of recent developments in three domains that have significant implications for computer-assisted instruction (CAI) and computer-based training (CBT). These areas are audio and videodisc technology, CAI and CBT experience, and research in the processes of learning. This practical book is written specifically for people who want to learn to design CAI. The book presents a CAI-specific design procedure by integrating knowledge about unique aspects of human-machine interaction with theories of learning and instruction as well as practical experience with CAI. The reader is guided through the entire design process, from initial planning to final evaluation, by clearcut principles and concrete examples.
Download or read book Oversold and Underused written by Larry Cuban and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2003-04-30 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Impelled by a demand for increasing American strength in the new global economy, many educators, public officials, business leaders, and parents argue that school computers and Internet access will improve academic learning and prepare students for an information-based workplace. But just how valid is this argument? In Oversold and Underused, one of the most respected voices in American education argues that when teachers are not given a say in how the technology might reshape schools, computers are merely souped-up typewriters and classrooms continue to run much as they did a generation ago. In his studies of early childhood, high school, and university classrooms in Silicon Valley, Larry Cuban found that students and teachers use the new technologies far less in the classroom than they do at home, and that teachers who use computers for instruction do so infrequently and unimaginatively. Cuban points out that historical and organizational economic contexts influence how teachers use technical innovations. Computers can be useful when teachers sufficiently understand the technology themselves, believe it will enhance learning, and have the power to shape their own curricula. But these conditions can't be met without a broader and deeper commitment to public education beyond preparing workers. More attention, Cuban says, needs to be paid to the civic and social goals of schooling, goals that make the question of how many computers are in classrooms trivial.
Download or read book Computers and the Teaching of Writing in American Higher Education 1979 1994 written by Gail E. Hawisher and published by Praeger. This book was released on 1996 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a history composed of histories. Its particular focus is the way in which computers entered and changed the field of composition studies, a field that defines itself both as a research community and as a community of teachers. This may have a somewhat sinister suggestion that technology alone has agency, but this history (made of histories) is not principally about computers. It is about people-the teachers and scholars who have adapted the computer to their personal and professional purposes. From the authors' perspectives, change in technology drives changes in the ways we live and work, and we, agents to a degree in control of our own lives, use technology to achieve our human purposes. REVIEW: . . . This book reminds those of us now using computers to teach writing where we have been, and it brings those who are just entering the field up to date. More important, it will inform administrators, curriculum specialists, and others responsible for implementing the future uses of technology in writing instruction. - Computers and Composition
