Synopsis

Presents an approach in which elementary school students use computers to solve problems as part of the learning process, rather than merely as an education delivery system to replace teachers. Based on a 1996 survey showing that the experience students get on computers in classrooms are nothing like what they will need at work or probably do at home. Explains how to introduce word processing, databases, spreadsheets, and the Internet. Assumes only minimal knowledge of computers by the teacher. Annotation c.
