Resolving…

Discussion of how to integrate computers into the classroom focuses on seven principles of instruction: (1) mastery learning; (2) overlearning and automaticity; (3) cooperative learning; (4) monitoring student progress; (5) immediate feedback; (6) learning styles; and (7) classroom management. Guidelines for using computers to support the…

This paper reviews the literature validating inclusive practices that benefit most students in the classroom, maintain the integrity of the curriculum, and can be practically implemented. Peer tutoring, cooperative learning, content enhancement routines, curriculum revision, and strategies instruction are all examined and evaluated. (PB)
