Sinopsis

Until now, the application of computers to educational practice has received little input from psychological theory. This text locates the topic within the contemporary movement of socio-cultural theory, drawing on the writing of Vygotsky and others. It takes an unconventional stance in considering how new technology can enhance rather than undermine the social experience of learning and instruction, and allow teachers to achieve more in the classroom. The author argues that computers can provide the conditions for effective collaboration and enhance the social dimension of education. With its blend of theory and practice, from the primary school to university settings, this study should be of interest to educational psychologists, as well as psychologists studying group processes, cognition and development. It is also aimed at advanced undergraduates and trainee teachers.

Críticas

..."Crook frames an analysis of computer use in education in terms of a well-developed theory of collaboration in learning...The emphasis on cooperative experience provides a much richer framework than many alternatives that have been proposed...It provides a systematic framework for thinking about computer in education, and methodological tools for those who wish to conduct research in this area...It asks us to stop and think: Beyond just helping children learn to use computers, what should we do to help children use computers to learn?."-"Mind, Culture, and Activity, Summer 1995
