Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The microcomputer has become an important educational innovation, and the number of computers available for instruction in public schools is increasing dramatically. The number of teachers with training and knowledge to use computers effectively for instruction is lagging and consequently, beneficial uses of the technology are far from realized. There is widespread recognition that to optimize computer use in classrooms, many teachers will need some form of encouragement. A key factor that may encourage more widespread use of microcomputers in classroom instruction is teacher incentives. Various types of incentives have been proposed to stimulate teachers' involvement with computers. For example, organizational incentives such as support for training or providing various forms of technical assistance may help encourage the implementation of microcomputers to teachers over weekends, vacations, and summers or subsidizing teachers to author courseware may increase teachers' proficiency with computers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The lack of adequately trained teachers presents a major obstacle to the effective instructional uses of microcomputers in schools. For example, a survey of all school districts in California revealed that over 60 percent of the teachers using computers were either unprepared or inadequately prepared. Over three-fourths of the districts not using computers reported that faculty had practically no preparation in instructional computer use. This shortage of trained teachers is clearly evidenced not only in California, but in other states. Moreover, a few districts have the facilities, resources, staff, and reward structure to offer a systematic training program for microcomputer-based instruction. A second factor is the number of teachers who require training. Although the number of computer-related courses offered at teacher-training institutions is increasing, the vast majority of teachers do not receive this preservice education in computer use. For example, in a national survey of 1200 teachers, only 11 percent reported receiving some computer training in college or university.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Microcomputers have been heralded as a tool with great potential for improving the quality of instruction. While there is no doubt that the number of microcomputers available for instruction is increasing dramatically, the number of teachers with training and knowledge of how to use them effectively for instruction is lagging greatly. This shortage of trained teachers occurs for a number of reasons, including a lack of computer-related courses offered in teacher training institutions, the inability of economically pressed school districts to hire new teachers with computer training, and insufficient staff development programs. The nature of incentives offered teachers will likely play a key role in encouraging their participation in staff development of microcomputer-based instruction. These incentives include incremental salary credit reimbursement for outside courses release time and new job titles with higher salaries for technically experienced teachers. The purpose of this study, sponsored by the National Institute of Education, is to examine how different forms of incentives and support increase the quality of computer-based instruction and the role that staff development plays in this process.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An intensive qualitative two-year study of computer usage in an urban high school suggested many barriers to the utilization of microcomputers for instructional purposes. These barriers included (a) teachers' lack of clarity about why and how computers can be used in various fields, (b) teachers' lack of familiarity with computer hardware and software, (c) the overload of knowledgeable teachers, (d) the inertia inherent in a system in which well-established alternative procedures seem to be working adequately, and (e) the threat that the process of learning about and using computers posed to many teachers' sense of competence. Incentives leading to computer usage were considerably fewer and weaker. The included (a) teachers' belief that important instructional goals could best be met through computer usage, (b) teachers' own personal enjoyment of computer usage, and (c) administrators' belief that computers were useful as a public relations tool in attracting and retaining the students who might otherwise attend private schools. The study also found indications that when computer usage does occur to a substantial extent it may markedly influence important aspects of classroom structure and functioning. For example, there was reason to believe that heavy use of at least certain kinds of software led to a shift in grading practices and changes in the amount and type of attention given to students of varying achievement levels.

Download or read book "Successful" Use of Microcomputers in Classroom Instruction written by and published by . This book was released on 1983 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A widely shared belief among many policy makers, educators, parents, and the general public is that microcomputers have the potential to help pull U.S. education out of its current state of mediocrity (National Commission on Excellence in Education, 1983), and subsequently improve its quality. A number of barriers, however, impede the widespread implementation of microcomputers in classrooms. Along with cost, the major barrier to full implementation is the lack of knowledge possessed by researchers and educational practitioners alike regarding the nature of the knowledge, skills, and attitudes a teacher must have to use microcomputers successfully in classroom instruction. This paper addresses the standard implied in such an evaluation, that is, the nature of 'successful' classroom microcomputer use that might be embodied in the teaching of widely recognized, expert or master teachers. From the teachers' standpoint, microcomputers are an educational technology used as an instructional tool. Thus, the application of the instruction tool should be central to such an evaluation, within the broader context of ongoing classroom instruction.

This book was released on 1987-01-01 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is a serious risk that the extra burden of adding instruction about microcomputers and software to regular elementary school curricula may turn off both teachers and students to the potential that microcomputers have for improving learning. To counter this risk, microcomputers should be integrated into the regular instructional program of elementary schools. This book is primarily intended for elementary school teachers who already have some experience with microcomputers but no expertise is assumed. Following an introduction to education with computers, many applications and issues are discussed, including: (1) programs for drill and practice; (2) tutorials; (3) games; (4) simulations; (5) computer error diagnosis; (6) instructional software evaluation; (7) programming; (8) problem solving; (9) word processing; (10) computer literacy; and (11) administrative uses of microcomputers. This publication contains 109 references. (CW)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The goal of this study is to set forth guidelines for designing educational courseware that meet teachers' needs and for educating preservice and inservice teachers in the instructional uses of microcomputer. To this end, the study examines the relationships among teachers' attitudes toward computers, their knowledge of computers and the subjects matter taught, and their uses of microcomputers for instruction. This paper describes the study and reports preliminary impressions and findings.
