Descripción del artículo del vendedor

Developing Programmed Instructional Materials (1967) by James E. Espich & Bill Williams Fearon Publishers ? No ISBN (because 1967 did not require such things) Condition: Good As sold by Crappy Old Books Behold a book from that glorious mid-century moment when humanity looked at teaching and thought: What if we made it? systematic? Published in 1967 ? when slide rules were serious, mainframes filled rooms, and optimism about ?systems? was at peak levels ? Developing Programmed Instructional Materials is a handbook for those who believed education could be engineered like a bridge. This is not merely a book about teaching. It is about designing learning like a machine. Espich and Williams guide you through the noble art of ?programmed instruction? ? the idea that knowledge can be broken into steps, sequenced with precision, and delivered in tidy cognitive increments. Students respond. Feedback is immediate. Reinforcement follows. Progress is measured. Everything behaves. In theory. Inside you?ll discover: Flowcharts of enlightenment. Objectives stated with military clarity. Behavioural outcomes you can practically laminate. The comforting belief that if you control the inputs, the outputs will behave themselves. It is a document from the golden age of instructional optimism ? when B.F. Skinner was in the air, computers were looming on the horizon, and someone somewhere genuinely believed that if you sequenced information correctly, confusion would cease to exist. There?s something wonderfully earnest about it. The typography. The bold geometric cover. The confidence. It hums with 1960s belief in process, structure, and educational destiny. Ironically, in a world now ruled by algorithms, adaptive learning systems, and AI-driven content sequencing, this little 1967 manual feels less outdated than you might expect. It?s the paper ancestor of half the digital learning platforms currently charging subscription fees. Perfect for: Education historians who enjoy the smell of structured ambition. Teachers who suspect everything ?new? is simply old ideas with better marketing. Designers of online courses who want to meet their intellectual grandparents. Anyone who loves the phrase ?instructional objectives.? Condition: Good , as sold by Crappy Old Books. That means honest age. Slight toning. Possibly a few marks that suggest it once lived near a staff room. Binding sound, pages intact, ideas still briskly marching forward. It has not been programmed into oblivion. Buy it for the history. Buy it for the optimism. Buy it because somewhere between the flowcharts and reinforcement schedules lies the moment education decided it could be engineered ? and hasn?t quite recovered since. A 1967 systems dream, preserved in paper.
