COMPUTER TEACHING STRATEGIES Flashcards
(20 cards)
▪Used to communicate information to students in a time saving way.
▪Teach critical thinking and problem solving
▪Provide simulations of reality
▪Educate from a distance
▪Maximize time on task and help develop overlearning
▪Provide interactivity, instructional consistency, reduction of teacher’s repetitive tasks, individualized instruction, time efficiency and cost effectiveness.
COMPUTER TECHNOLOGY
COMPUTER-ASSISTED
INSTRUCTION (CAI)
▪ Simplest level of CAI
▪ Students have already learned certain information then, presented with repetition and application of the information.
DRILL and PRACTICE
COMPUTER-ASSISTED
INSTRUCTION (CAI)
▪ Tutors or teaches the student a body of knowledge by presenting information and asking questions.
▪ Most useful in teaching material at the rule and concept level.
▪ Any information taught by means of lecture could potentially be written as a computer tutorial program.
TUTORIALS
COMPUTER-ASSISTED
INSTRUCTION (CAI)
Just as board games, card games and trivia games
GAMES
COMPUTER-ASSISTED
INSTRUCTION (CAI)
▪ One of the most exciting available form of CAI.
▪ Provide students with opportunity to learn how to solve clinical problems and make sound decisions.
▪ Students can take risks and make mistakes with no danger to the
patient.
SIMULATIONS
COMPUTER-ASSISTED
INSTRUCTION (CAI)
▪ Sometimes called hypermedia
▪ Programs may incorporate text, sound tracks, graphics, still photos,
animation, video clips and material from the World Wide Web
(WWW).
MULTIMEDIA PRESENTATIONS
what is WWW?
WORLD WIDE WEB
[Criteria for Evaluating Computer-Assisted Instruction Software]
▪Is the content accurate according to published subject knowledge?
▪Is the information up to date?
ACCURACY
[Criteria for Evaluating Computer-Assisted Instruction Software]
▪Are the instructions and commands easy to follow?
▪Is there a user’s guide?
▪Is there a tutorial in the program?
EASE OF USE
[Criteria for Evaluating Computer-Assisted Instruction Software]
▪Is this computer program the best way to deliver the content?
▪Is interactivity built in?
▪Does it make the content interesting?
DESIGN
[Criteria for Evaluating Computer-Assisted Instruction Software]
▪ Are there appropriate graphics?
▪ Is there animation and sound?
▪ Do the graphics and animation serve a real purpose or are they
distracting
APPEARANCE
[Criteria for Evaluating Computer-Assisted Instruction Software]
▪ Does the program give the learner feedback on responses?
▪ Do opportunity exist to repeat material for which responses were
incorrect?
▪ Are rationales given for the learner responses?
FEEDBACK
[Criteria for Evaluating Computer-Assisted Instruction Software]
▪ What is the purchase price? Are any discounts available?
▪ Can copies be made of the program?
COST EFFECTIVENESS
▪Teachers use computers to manage, prepare, organize and evaluate educational experiences.
▪Programs designed to construct examinations fall on this category.
▪Any system of record keeping such as: recording grades, keeping attendance record and recording
student profiles can also be CMI.
COMPUTER-MANAGED INSTRUCTION (CMI)
pre-developed software packages that guide the educator through the process of development of CAI.
AUTHORING SYSTEMS
THE INTERNET
▪Provide greater collaboration between teachers and students; between students and students.
▪Source of peer support
▪A means for patients to ask referrals, for consultations and post-discharge follow-up.
E-MAIL (ELECTRONIC MAL)
THE INTERNET
a group of people who have similar interests and want to share information and experiences regarding those interests in a type of discussion group.
LISTSERVS
THE INTERNET
▪ Similar to listservs
▪ Messages appear in a general mailbox that everyone views, compared to the individual mailbox messages in a listserv.
▪ Used for online support groups for people suffering from various
diseases and conditions; or for people who care for them.
NEWS GROUP
THE INTERNET
▪ A collection of millions of “documents” found on web pages that interface to the internet.
▪ Used when information that is required is not in the textbook or the library.
▪ A place to find specialized knowledge and multi-media presentations.
WORLD WIDE WEB (WWW)
▪A computer-based, simulated three-dimensional environment in which the participant interacts with a virtual world.
▪Ability to practice invasive procedures in a life-like scenario.
▪The control that is built in a virtual reality simulation makes it a unique opportunity to practice complex and dangerous skills in a safe environment
