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.
In 1987/88 Adult Basic Education became a programming priority for CSC. The goal of the program was to increase the number of offenders possessing a completed Grade 8 in English and mathematics. This study reviewed the role that computer-assisted instruction could play in achieving this goal in a pilot study set up at Warkworth and Collins Bay institutions. The report examines: -- possible benefits provided by computers, such as student/staff ratios and student learning speed; -- adult basic education software available; -- training of teachers in use of computer assisted learning; -- the technology strategy required; -- most efficient and effective equipment configuration.
