More Book Details

Description of the Book:

This paper describes an electronic classroom (ECR) program that has been developed at Nova University to facilitate online real-time group instruction in graduate degree programs in information and computer science. The first section describes the educational uses of the program, including the simulation of a classroom-type educational setting with question handling, response tallying, and the automatic sequencing of lesson frames. The design problems associated with use of the program are described in the second section, and the third outlines alternate uses for the ECR program, including evaluation of instruction and programs, Delphi techniques for curriculum and program planning, and several group participation methodologies such as the online charrette, brainwriting, nominal group technique, cross impact analysis, and the futurewheel. In conclusion, it is noted that one of the major challenges for faculty is to determine what mix should be provided of online lectures, face-to-face seminars, and written assignments.
