Summary
This volume was developed from a conference held at Teachers College, Columbia University, in 1986. It highlights issues in learning and instruction in the information age and the changes in the structure of the curriculum and the style of classroom instruction. The contributors discuss how schools can escape the present limits of printbound learning, and describe the role of technology in education, including training for educators, reducing inequities in technology rich educational settings, and changes to make technology more productive. The volume concludes with suggestions for recording the curriculum to emphasize skills, to evaluate information, set priorities, and make decisions. ISBN 0-89859-9: $19.95.
