Hardbound. The current proliferation of computers in the home will inevitably have a significant effect on school education and, perhaps, on the cognitive development of children. The worth of evaluating current trends and experiments in this area is therefore obvious.In recognizing the need for debate on computers in education, this volume examines the respective roles of home and school exposure to computers. It charts the development of children's knowledge in computerized environments. Papers from around the world tackle various specific issues, ranging from the role of micro-computers in educating the physically handicapped, to an assessment of projects in the U.K. - a country whose experience in this area can teach us all lessons for the future. Elementary and secondary school teachers, education policy workers and administrators, and even parents owning a personal computer, can all benefit from the expert viewpoints offered in this book.
