1996
Beerman, K.A.
Today's students have grown up in an electronic world. There is no doubt that the approaching generation will be even more technologically advanced than our current students. Computer technology offers us a powerful and versatile tool that can dramatically change teaching and learning. The result is an improved ability to present abstract or complex material with increased student comprehension and interest. Case studies and computer simulations help develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills by providing students with an opportunity to apply their knowledge. Studies indicate that instruction via computers results in higher test scores compared to conventional methods, as well as greater long-term retention. The time has come for faculty to consider how computer technology can best be used in their classes.
