The Role of Technology in School Improvement. A Presenter's Guide. Research Based Training for School Administrators.
Carnine, Doug; And Others
This workshop presenter's guide is intended for use by administrators in training one another in the Project Leadership program developed by the Association of California School Administrators (ACSA). This manual is divided into four areas of technology and education: (1) Administrators and Computers, (2) Computer-Assisted Instruction (CAI), (3) Videodisk Instruction, and (4) Programming Languages. After an introduction, chapter 2 discusses hardware and software and how they are used in schools; common programs for administrators (word processing, electronic spreadsheets, and integrated packages); special administrative application programs (attendance, scheduling, and Individualized Education Plan (IEP) management); and information processing (grade book programs, automated scoring and diagnostic analysis, and group CAI). Chapter 3 discusses the topics of drill and practice, tutorial and simulation-oriented computer-assisted instruction, instructional games, and word processing. Chapter 4 discusses instructional design, mastery learning procedures, and benefits to administrators. Chapter 5 discusses programming languages (Basic, Pascal, and Logo). The guide contains masters of 30 numbered transparencies, participants' work sheets, 4 handouts that provide workshop summaries and bibliographic references, and a 25-item reference list of sources cited or referred to in the text.
