Kerr, Stephen T. – 1989
This paper first reviews the field of educational technology and teaching from two perspectives, that of the technologist and that of the teacher. It is noted that the activities of educational technologists are now defined largely in terms of instructional design and development and are increasingly distanced from the work of ordinary teachers in…

Crawford, D. G.; Crawford, G. C. – 1983
While the improvement of authoring systems and the development of knowledge-based rather than frame-oriented computer assisted instruction (CAI) systems are useful, a significant part of the courseware development problem lies in the inability of teachers (subject matter experts) to prepare material that promotes effective, efficient learning.…

Garraway, R. W. T. – 1983
The purpose of this study was to investigate the extent to which a sophisticated computer assisted instruction (CAI) system could be implemented on the type of microcomputer system currently found in the schools. A method was devised for comparing CAI languages and was used to rank five common CAI languages. The highest ranked language, NATAL,…
