Fred Bennett describes his book - Computers as Tutors:
Solving the Crisis in Education:
" It shows how a complete revamp of education could come
about
if computers provided all basic information to students.
This is not a 'Use computers and throw out the teacher' book.
Rather, it shows how teachers could reach a new level of importance
if they allowed technology to relieve them of the time consuming
chores that now interfere with their work of being educators.
Students would be the big winners. Illiteracy would be eliminated,
the brightest students would make massive gains, and all pupils
would partake
in better and more enjoyable education. The book also explains
why computers,
despite their amazing potential, have failed to generate substantial
improvements
in most K-12 education."
This book is of monumental importance in understanding
the use of the computer as an indispensable teaching tool. The
author does much more
than uncover the pervasive shortcomings of public schools, compared
to business, science,
government, and the military, in reaping the impressive academic
gains of computer-assisted
instruction. He champions the philosophy that computers are the
most effective way to deliver
instruction. Computer-based tutorials teach and illustrate the
intricacies of subject matter
tirelessly and in sequences based upon each student's need. Because
software
that teaches is what distinguishes our Achievement
Prep Series ,
we strongly recommend this book.
