Teaching is the noblest of all professions. If it were not for teachers, as a recent television commercial asked, where will the doctors, scientist, and lawyers come from? Teaching began by one person showing another person how to do something. One caveman showed another how to start a fire. A father showed a son how to plant a seed. A mother showed a daughter how to read the Bible. As society evolved so did education. Education was institutionalized. Classes were formed, schools established and "showing" became "telling". It has been realized however that maybe the old way was the best way and teachers have responded by developing instructional techniques in which education again became showing, and the learner was again expected to take an active role in the learning process. This technique is what this course is all about. How can you as a teacher use visual and audio support to "show" students what they need to know. You will begin by defining what is instruction and studying the "process" of designing lessons with media. You will also look at what is perhaps the greatest educational tool ever developed, the computer. You will study what a computer is, how it works, and more importantly how you can use it in your classroom. You will look at other forms of instructional media available to you as a teacher, and finally, you will look at how the classroom of the future will be different from today's classroom. The course will answer the questions: What are the instructional media? How do I decide which medium is the most effective for the instructional objectives I've identified? and How do I effectively use media in the classroom?
