Classification Systems Robert Taylor’s (1980) trichotomy of “tutor, tool, tutee.” Tutor Mode – the technology (such as a computer) possesses the information and controls the learning environment Tool Mode - the technology is used to assist (or act as a tool) in the learning activity Tutee Mode – the student possesses the information and controls the learning environment Copyright © 2006 by Pearson Education, Inc.

Tutor Applications Drill and Practice are used to reinforce a lesson or material that has already been presented to the student. Tutorials attempt to teach something new and are not used specifically to reinforce material already presented—although they can do that, too. Simulations attempt to represent real-life situations on a computer. Instructional Games and Problem Solving attempt to make learning fun by combining learning, entertainment, and gamesmanship.

Curriculum Integration and Planning: Three Considerations 1. Integrating technology into the curriculum starts with making sure that teachers and students have developed a basic understanding and knowledge of computer use. 2. Planning requires the involvement of those who possess expertise and who ultimately may be responsible for implementing new applications. The fulcrum for curriculum integration and planning instructional applications is the teaching staff. 3. Because of the many applications and alternatives available, teachers and administrators need to develop a process in which priorities can be established and plans developed for the long term.
