Abstract
This paper reports on a state-of-the-art conference held at the New York Institute of Technology on April 24 and 25,1983. The objective of the conference was to clarify the issues relating to applications of technology to education. Conferees identified six major technologies having great potential for education in mathematics, science, and technology: computers; educational television; videotex, databases, and computer-based telecommunications; video discs; intelligent video discs; and robotics. In addition, the conferees suggested exploration of combinations of these technologies and vigilant attention to new technologies as they emerge to identify educational applications. The report also includes discussion of the evidences of effectiveness of educational technology, quality of courseware, and twenty-eight recommendations. These recommendations are action suggestions that are being forwarded to the National Science Foundation's Commission for Precollege Education in Mathematics, Science and Technology for inclusion in their report.
