TL;DR: The computer and such associated devices as the optical videodisc, is at present little used in the learning process as mentioned in this paper. But this use is extremely likely to increase rapidly in the future.
Abstract: The computer, and such associated devices as the optical videodisc, is at present little used in the learning process. But this use is extremely likely to increase rapidly in the future. There will be important implications to those interested in learning. The present paper outlines some of those implications.
TL;DR: The rate of technological change made possible by new developments in computers and telecommunications presents the manager with the challenge of managing information technology rather than being managed by information technology.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present models to facilitate a receptive mind-set to the creation and transfer of technology in education and demonstrate that the education system in the United States is receptive to futureoriented knowledge and methods.
Abstract: The technology (product) in education is knowledge. Therefore, one would expect that disseminators of knowledge (educators) would be on the forefront of change (creators and distributors of new knowledge). There is little evidence to show that the education system in the United States is receptive to future-oriented knowledge and methods. Therefore, this paper presents models to facilitate a receptive mind-set to the creation and transfer of technology in education.
