Computer Teaching Strategies: Strategies in Health Education

Computer-assisted instruction strategies include drill and practice, tutorials, games, simulations, and multimedia presentations. The internet enables distance learning through email, discussion groups, the world wide web, searches, and virtual learning environments. Distance learning has advantages like accessibility and self-directed learning but also disadvantages such as lack of face-to-face contact and need for appropriate hardware/software. Synchronous online classes allow real-time interaction but require simultaneous participation, while asynchronous classes are more flexible but risk procrastination.

Virtual reality

A computer based simulated three-dimensional environment in which the participant interacts with virtual world

Distance learning
It is any form of teaching and learning in which the teacher and learner are not in the same place at the same time' (Gilbert, 1995).

Advantages
Accessibility Self directed nature of learning experience Opportunity to learn more about technology

Disadvantages

Lack of face to face contact Some learners may not be able to access the hardware and software they need Some may not learn with less lectures

Forms of Distance learning technologies:


1.computer simulations
2. interactive collaboration/discussion 3.virtual learning environments connecting regions or nations.

Interactive TV Classes (ITV)

Via internet
Classes delivered via internet / online or web-based classes a. Synchronous classes People interact in real time electronically via the internet or intranet b. Asynchronous classes Materials are located on the web page that can be assessed at any time at the learners convenience

Advantages & disadvantages of synchronous discussions


Advantages Mimics normal conversation Discussion takes place efficiently real time Can involve professional guests

Disadvantages All learners must be available at the same time Discussion progresses quickly and depth of ideas may suffer Slow typist may not participate as much

Advantages Learners and teacher may log on at any time There is adequate time to think through responses

Disadvantages Procrastinations may not get involved in some of the discussion Postings may become very lengthy and time consuming to read
