Part of a pilot project in distance learning by satellite | |
in North Carolina, this telecourse is designed to | |
increase teachers' awareness and understanding of how to | |
use computers and instructional software in their | |
teaching. The six 1-hour teleconference sessions in this | |
telecourse include "live," interactive one-way video/two- | |
way audio communications between the presenters in the | |
studio and teachers in the three participating schools. | |
This printed guide, the computers and two sets of | |
software (some run on the IBM PC, others on the Apple | |
IIe), and the telecourse facilitator complete the | |
project's communications/instructional system. Structured | |
as a survey of some basic and instructional applications | |
of the computer, the telecourse includes an orientation | |
to computer applications in the K-12 instructional | |
program and sessions on writing; data analysis and | |
problem solving; data collection, analysis, and graphing; | |
arts education; and authoring and graphing. Subject areas | |
represented in these sessions include communication | |
skills, science, social studies, music, foreign | |
languages, and mathematical sciences. Designed to engage | |
participants in active involvement as they learn, this | |
guide includes participant objectives, a presentation | |
synopsis, teleconference preparation and follow-up | |
activities, independent practice/personal growth | |
activities, and a list of references and resources for | |
each session. Detailed instructions for using individual | |
software packages are also provided as appropriate, and | |
some related uses of the software may be suggested. Most | |
of the assigned readings are appended to the manual, | |
including the final draft of the North Carolina | |
competency-based curriculum guide for library/media and | |
computer skills for grades K-12. (DJR) | |
