About this title

Synopsis

For Computers in Education courses, and courses in Instructional Media and Technology.

Rather than focus on technology as a tool to teach with, this text stresses that technology―video, hypermedia, the Internet, etc.―is an excellent tool to learn with. The emphasis is on learning to solve problems. By concentrating on problem solving with several specific media, the authors show how a variety of technologies can be used to engage students in personally and socially constructed meaning. They address the Internet, and how it can be used to foster community building; video, and how naturally students take to being behind the camera; and multimedia, as a new form of interactive literacy.
