Bijlstra, Jim P.; Jelsma, Otto – Programmed Learning and Educational Technology, 1988
Discusses how interactive video can be used as a training tool for process operators. Highlights include instructional features of interactive video, random access and branching capabilities, examples of training for operators of automated processes, simulation and interactive video, designing interactive video programs, and suggestions for…

Winn, William – Programmed Learning and Educational Technology, 1986
Presents a definition of educational technology that points to three areas where research is needed: instructional theory, design-oriented research, and instructional design procedures. Computer assisted instruction and perceptions of media and technologies are discussed, and 74 references are given. (Author/LRW)

Stubbs, Malcolm; Piddock, Peter – Programmed Learning and Educational Technology, 1985
Discussion of intelligent computer assisted learning (CAL) systems considers both those that offer natural language communication to the user and those that are adaptive, generative, or self-improving. Current interest in student-built learning environments (exemplified by work with LOGO and PROLOG) is examined, and obstacles to future intelligent…

Braun, Ludwig – Programmed Learning and Educational Technology, 1981
This discussion of the impact of computers on education focuses on microcomputer developments since 1975, the advantages of microcomputers over other computers, some innovative computer based activities in the United States, and the principal inhibitors to effective use of computers in schools. Four references are listed. (CHC)

Ager, Alastair – Programmed Learning and Educational Technology, 1986
Suggests programming structures of computer assisted instruction for teaching severely learning disabled students be related to an established educational model. Use of performance contoured programming (PCP), based upon behavioral model of precision teaching, is discussed and contrasted with cognitive programming approaches. PCP applications and…

Davies, Dick – Programmed Learning and Educational Technology, 1988
Discussion of interactive technologies and open learning focuses on computer supported cooperative work (CSCW), especially computer based message systems, and their effects on open learning. Topics discussed include cooperative learning; distance learning; individualized instruction; local area networks; group communication; and design principles…
