Abstract
A computer-based instructional workstation (IWS) is a means to: 1) integrate computer, video, and optical data storage technology into a single instructional system, 2) enable students to learn how to manage information and resolve problems by using the new technology available to them, and 3) help preservice and inservice teachers learn how to use these forms of technology to teach subject matter and information management skills. This workstation is a “problem-centered, information management” instructional system, suitable for individuals or small groups. It combines a microcomputer; video tape, video disc, and CD-ROM players; a video camera; and a printer with productivity, educational, and custom-designed software. An instructional workstation enables teachers and media specialists to focus on educational intents, processes and outcomes without the restrictions of discrete technologies. The system is flexible enough to provide multiple options in task selection, information presentation, and performance evaluation.
