This systematic review to identify the distribution of articles from two databases using the science mapping method, and to investigate the preparedness of educators for the development of digital education in economics. The descriptive analysis is used to identify the research trends globally on the development of digital education in the scope…

Deeper learning (DL) is firmly rooted in learning science and computer science. However, a dearth of review studies has probed its trajectory in DL in foreign languages (DLFL). Utilizing SSCI from the Web of Science Core Collection, we employ Citespace and Vosviewer to analyze the scientific knowledge graph of DLFL literature. Our analysis…

The majority of the existing research regarding mobile learning in computing education has primarily focused on studying the effectiveness of, and in some cases reporting about, implemented mobile learning solutions. However, it is equally important to explore development and application perspectives on the integration of mobile learning into…

Reviews the basic concepts and technology behind the functions computers perform, describes the miniaturization of computer components, discusses the development of the microprocessor and the microcomputer, and makes projections concerning the future of the microcomputer market. Information is provided on the features, costs, and manufacturers of…

Defines "Videotex," explains how it is used in Great Britain, and outlines its advantages and disadvantages for journalists. (FL)

Presents overview of library uses of automation, noting the earliest example of a "black box" in 1588, the "indicator" invented in England in 1863, various forms of card catalogs, and computer solutions posed by Vannevar Bush, J. C. R. Licklider, Project Intrex, and John G. Kemeny. Ten references are cited. (EJS)

Reviews the state of the art in online access and possible future directions it might take, with emphasis on prospects (technological, economic, policy, and political) for the availability and benefits of online access in developing countries. Information technology, telecommunications, and local versus remote facilities are highlighted. Three…

Reviews criteria for assessment of appropriate information technology, comparing characteristics of modern information technology developed and applied in industrialized developed societies with constraints for information utilization in developing countries. Options for information technology are suggested. Four references are provided. (EJS)

Defines artificial intelligence (AI) and discusses its history; the current state of the art, research, experimentation, and practical applications; and probable future developments. Key dates in the history of AI and eight references are provided. (MBR)

Highlights research on computer assisted instruction which should lead educators to the conclusion that there should be a computer in every classroom to improve teacher effectiveness and to enhance student achievement. (NEC)

Presents an anecdotal look at the evolution of computer literacy from 1965 to 1985 and a projection to 1995 by tracing progress at 10-year intervals. The characteristics of a computer literate person and arguments for computer literacy during each time period are discussed. (MBR)

Provides an overview of the impact of computers, particularly microcomputers, on school libraries and learning resources centers, with an emphasis upon computer technology and the types of library operations computers can perform. A glossary of vocabulary from the computer field, a reference list, and a 26-item bibliography are included. (JL)

Describes applications of new technology to information handling on the basis of two trends--the miniaturization of electronic circuits and the shift from analog to digital modes of communication. Information technologies discussed are microcomputers, word processors, telecommunications, storage technologies, databases, videotex, and teletext.…

Discusses the new discipline of medical information science (MIS) and examines some problem-solving approaches used in its application in the clinical laboratory, emphasizing automation by computer technology. The health care field is viewed as one having overlapping domains of clinical medicine, health management and statistics, and fundamental…

This report, profusely illustrated with color photographs and other graphics, elaborates on the Department of Energy (DOE) research program in High Performance Computing and Communications (HPCC). The DOE is one of seven agency programs within the Federal Research and Development Program working on HPCC. The DOE HPCC program emphasizes research in…
