dc.description | In this report prepared for the National Audio-Visual Association/International Communication Industries Association, the rapid growth in the number of computers used in education was attributed to the dramatic reduction in hardware costs, a grassroots movement to help teachers understand and use technology, external pressures on schools to use computers by parents with computers at home, and school perceptions that computers would increase their ability to control their work environment. The report also says that these factors resulted in state policy and funding support, federal grants for the purchase of hardware and software, and courseware available at competitive prices. The paper summarizes the effects of computer-assisted instruction based on studies of the last decade. It finds that the effects are related to increased student achievement when courseware is used appropriately, but to use coursework successfully training and support must be offered. | en |
