摘要:It should be apparent that technology will play a crucial role in the success of the Information-Age paradigm of education.

Just as the electronic spreadsheet made the accountant’s job quicker, easier, and less expensive, the kind of system described here will make the teacher’s job quicker, easier, and less expensive. However, the use of technology must be theory-driven to realize its potential contribution.
