Publisher description
Since we educate by means of the environment, special attention must be given to the design of learning environments conducive to the cultivation of the educated person. An essential element of that design is ensuring the learner¹s interactivity with models of excellence, both in human resources and in learning materials. Fortunately, the technology of the information age provides students and teachers with the tools and vehicles through which models of excellence can be accessed. This book examines the new educational technologies and their potential applications to enrich the learning process, to ensure educational equality for all students, and to help cultivate the educated person. It is divided into four sections: Education in the Information Age, The Learning Environment, The New Learning and Telecommunications Technologies, and Necessary Conditions for Effective Utilization of the New Learning and Telecommunications Technologies. Section I examines the need for educational reform, the goal of the reform, and the role of technology in realizing that goal. Section II addresses the significance of the learning environment and the necessary conditions for providing teachers and students with access to models of excellence in human resources and in learning materials. Section III presents the new learning and telecommunication technologies with emphasis placed on their potential applications in education. Section IV focuses on necessary conditions conducive to the empowerment of the teachers to teach and the students to learn in the information age
