DESCRIPTORS Authoring Aids (Programing); *Computer Assisted Instruction; Computer Software Development; Elementary Secondary Education; English Instruction; English Literature; Higher Education; *Hypermedia; Short Stories IDENTIFIERS Apple Macintosh ABSTRACT This report describes a computer-assisted instructional application created on a Macintosh computer using HyperCard software. The iL3tructional program is aimed at those who teach college-level English education courses and those whoare planning a course on the use of technology in the English classroom. It is noted that the HyperCard software was developed to aid in teaching English literature, specifically short stories, and provides access not only to the text of the short story, but also to concepts and patterns throughout the story. The rationale behind using the Macintosh computer, the concept of hypermedia and hypertext and, in particular, the use of HyperCard on the Macintosh, are discussed. Also described is the theory of short story analysis that underlies the computer application. The report concludes with a detailed discussion of programming using the HyperCard software, and suggests a method for creating unique applications to meet the needs of individual classroomE.

Re.nry isa computer- assisted instructional applic.ation createdon a Macintosh computer using HyperCard. In its most basic format, itwas developed as an instructional device to teach the rudiments of HyperCardto teachers and future teachers in English 337Technology in the English Classroom,a CSULB course created to fulfill Title 5 requirements that students receiving theclear teaching credential have computer raining specificto their discipline. The preparation of the present version of the application and thisbooklet was supported by a 1989/90 dissemination grant from the Lottery Revenue Program for Instructional Development and Technology. The application is being distributed free to all interested English faculty in the CaliforniaState University system; it is particularly aimed at those who teach English alucation courses and those who are planninga Title 5 computer-instruction course. I am not a computer programmer,nor a designer of computer applications, as this "rough draft" version of American Short Story will indicate. However, by studying instructional bookson HyperCard, I have developed a basic format whereby HyperCard might be usedto assist the teacher of English teach the reading of short narrative. HyperCard, and its program language, HyperTalk, are very accessible devices for designing simple applications such Ps this one. The booklet and diskare being distributed to my colleagues in 2.nglish Departments throughout the CSU system to let theta know that useful applications can be designed even by a computer novice like myself, for with HyperCard, one does not have to learn a complex program language. Although it is impossibleto provide a complete background for the use of HyperCard in this short booklet, perhaps an account of the thinking and development whichwent into the creation of this simple application will provideeven those who are unfamiliar with the Macintosh or with HyperCard withan idea of the program's possible educational uses. With that aim in mind, I will briefly discuss the following elements which underlie the American Short Story application: American Short Story 2 1. The "look and feel" of the Macintosh computer 2. The basic concept of H xt 3. The implementation ofCa%ani on the Macintosh 4. The theory of short story analysis which unlerlies the application 5. How the American Short Story application works 6. How the American Short Story application was put together The actual HyperCard program cannot be shipped with this disk; thus it is assumed that you have access to a copy of it. Having been distributed fite ',with all Macintosh computers since August 1987, it is ubiquitous. If you do not have your own copy, find a Macintosh lab on your campus, and it will surely be then, probably on a fixed disk or on a network file server. Although this application makes use of ten nineteenth-century American short stories, it is not being distributed primarily for use by teachers of the American short story, but rather for use by teachers of English education courses. The emphasis is not on the history of the form, but on analysis of individual stories.Short stories were chosen because I have done a great deal of research and writing on the form over the past several years; these particular American short stories were chosen because they are relatively short, are fairy well-known and representative, and are in the public domain. Teachers of the short story are, of course, free to use the application in their classroom. You may make as many copies of the disk as you like; however, I would appreciate it if you would give credit to me for designing the application and to the Lottery Revenue Program for Instructional Development and Technology for supporting it.I am currently preparing a short story text book, which, when published, will be distributed with disks similar to this one. The Macintosh Computer The Macintosh is manufactured by Apple Computer, Inc. which was founded by two young entrepreneurs, Steve Wozniak and Steve Jobs, in the early 1970s. The Apple I computer, created in a garage, was followed by the Apple II, which became the computer of choice for public school systems throughout the country. Apple, wanting to develop a mare po erful machine to appeal to the business market, created a computerin American Short Story 3 the late 1970s called the Lisa. However, because itwas so expensive and because IBM had practically come:cal the business market with its computer by that time, the Lisa failul to take off. Steve Jobs then pioneered the transformation of the Lisa into what he envisionedas the'people's computer- -the Macintosha computer "for the rest of us" as the ad sloganwent, which anyone could set up and use "right out of the box." The Macintosh was introduced in 1984 to mixed reviews. The public took to it immediately, for it seemed the ultimate in "friendliness," right down to the opening "happy face." However, the old handsat computer use--who had cut their teeth on the CPM world of criptic commands lines, considered it an expensive toy, not fit for serious work. That has all changed now, and the machine has been upgraded and expanded through several different models since then. The Mac SE is only slightly faster and can be purchased with an internal fixed disk drive witha 20 megabyte capacity. The SE30 runs about four times faster thana plain SE and, in addition to being provided with a fixed disk drive of 20 megabytes or more, has a 1.44 Megabyte internal "superdrive" whichcan also access data created on an IBM-compatible computer. The Mac II series constitutes the so-called high end of the Mac family. Thereare several models, all of which support color monitors and all of whichare faster (except for the now discontinued "plain" Mac II),more "open" and more easily expandable than the relatively closed Mac Plus, Mac SE, and SE30. Two primary factors distinguished the Macintosh from other computers when it was first introduced: the use of the mouse and a graphic user interface (now widely imitated and called a GUI) Before the Mac, the basic way that one "made things happen" on a computerwas by typing in instrucLons on a typewriter style keyboard. This seemed quite natural, given the fact that the most common uses of the computer involved manipulating words and figuresby word processing, data base management, and spreadsheet programs. However, the creators of the Macintosh felt that such a ''command line" orientation frightenedmany potential computer users away because they had to memorizea large number of keystrokes. Steve Jobs wanted to developa "user interface" (what one sees on the screen and uses to operate the machine) which would be more "friendly" because it featured images of familiar "real world" objects. Thus, the first thing you see whenyou turn on the Mac is not the enigmatic A> pr-mpt of the IBM, but a "desktop." American Short Story 4 Although the "desktop" is simplya gray opening screen, the graphic images on it, appropriately knownas "icons," resemble real objects.For example, if you start up the Mac witha 3 1/2 "floppy" disk, you will see an icon or graphic image of that disk (with itsname under it) at the top right corner of thescreen. You will also see the image of a trash can at the bonum right of the screen, where you "dump" thingsyou no longer want to useon the desktop.

  • Ipad in Education: Evaluating Apps for the Classroom ! !
    ! ! ! ! iPad in Education: Evaluating Apps for the Classroom ! ! Apps in the Classroom 1 Overview iPad apps are expanding the learning experience both inside and outside the classroom, making it more interactive, immersive, and engaging. And we know that when students are more engaged, they are more motivated, and they perform better. With so many amazing education apps available—and more being developed all the time—there’s no limit to the exciting possibilities for learning. Tens of thousands of education apps on the App Store cover everything from math and science to foreign languages and reading. Students can manipulate math equations using just a finger. They can browse an interactive periodic table of elements. They can even dissect a virtual frog in one class, then flip through the world's greatest collection of art in the next. And teachers can deliver engaging lessons, monitor progress, get immediate feedback on students, and stay organized. Getting Started If you’re just getting started teaching with apps, it’s helpful to begin by setting goals for student learning. What must students understand? What should their interaction with apps look like? And which apps would work best for your specific lesson plans? You may find that choosing an app is easier after carefully considering what you want students to do with it, and why. You might begin by exploring questions like: • What parts of your lesson plans are you particularly passionate about? How could you best communicate that enthusiasm to students? • Where do your students encounter roadblocks around a topic or lesson? What might help them get over these hurdles? • What concepts or activities would you like to cover but don’t have enough time? Can they be taught more efficiently or combined with others? • What are the opportunities to gain insights into student learning through the content they create with apps? The answers to these questions and the content in this guide can help as you begin to explore, choose, and integrate iOS apps into your classroom.

  • A ROOM with a VUI – VOICE USER INTERFACES in the TESOL CLASSROOM by David Kent Woosong University Daejon, Republic of Korea Dbkent @ Wsu.Ac.Kr
    Teachng Englsh wth Technology, 20(3), 96-124, http://www.tewtjournal.org 96 A ROOM WITH A VUI – VOICE USER INTERFACES IN THE TESOL CLASSROOM by David Kent Woosong University Daejon, Republic of Korea dbkent @ wsu.ac.kr Abstract Disruptive technologies have seen how students interact with their teachers, how we as teachers now prepare and provide learning, and how we might best incorporate artificial intelligence into the classroom. To this end, the pedagogical affordances offered by the voice-user interface of digital assistants is explored. Instructional strategies supported by examples are then provided, along with means for actioning their use in the classroom and evaluating their appropriateness and viability for enhancing language learning. Keywords: digital assistants; voice-user interface; interaction; speaking 1. Introduction As instructors, we no longer talk about technology replacing teachers, or even teachers who use technology replacing those that do not (John & Wheeler, 2015); instead we expect to be incorporating technologies for learning into our classrooms. This means that as instructors today, we need to be able to competently apply that technology and competently assess and evaluate the suitability and appropriateness of how that technology has met intended teaching and learning objectives, while also understanding all levels of the educational potential behind its use, and assisting learners in being able to identify those elements as well (Fotos & Brown, 2004; Levy and Stockwell, 2006). This is important because teaching in the time of digital language learning sees us not just doing old things in new ways, but it has ushered in a total era of ‘newness.’ There are new things to do, new ways to think, new methods of managing relationships with others (and AI – artificial intelligence), and new practices in teaching that require us to adopt new skills and new abilities (Jones & Hafner, 2012).
