Synopsis

This book offers a compelling exploration of the relationship between computers and the learning process. The author, an expert in the field, presents a detailed analysis of how people acquire and assimilate knowledge, arguing that a clear understanding of the learning process is fundamental to the design of effective computer-based learning systems. At the heart of the book lies a two-variable learning model that considers the stages of the learning process and the characteristics of the material to be learned. This model provides a framework for analyzing the demands of different types of learning and matching appropriate technology to meet those demands. By examining the nuances of different learning modalities, the book sheds light on the strengths and limitations of various learning aids, including textbooks, computer-based tutorials, simulations, and games. Ultimately, this book offers valuable guidance for educators and technology designers seeking to leverage technology to enhance the learning process.
