| Description:
The Internet provides new challenges and opportunities for teaching and learning. As with any tool, it can either enhance or degrade education. Using both theoretical and practical perspectives, we will study techniques, tools and methods now in use in computer-mediated instruction and attempt to answer such questions as: What works? How can the web be used to enrich collaborative and interactive learning? What is the role of the teacher? What is the cognitive impact of the web? We will examine pedagogical as well as technological issues. In the second session, we will apply what we have learned by designing and testing web-based instructional tools, including a virtual course appropriate for distance learning and a home page to supplement face-to-face instruction. Students with either limited or advanced Internet skills will find this course useful. |
