In Section 1 of this course you will cover these topics: Learning And Instruction Computer Applications In Education The Impact Of The Computer On Education Topic : Learning And Instruction Topic Objective: At the end of this topic student would be able to understand: Computer's Role In Instruction Instructional Technology Early Applications The Internet Era Outcomes Research Social Context Gagne's Nine Events of Instruction Definition/Overview: The first topic establishes a framework for looking at the computer's role in instruction and examines its role in student learning. A brief review of behaviorist and constructivist theories of instruction and learning is presented. The intent is to demonstrate that the computer can be a practical tool usedWWW.BSSVE.IN in concert with teaching strategies that have a solid theoretical basis. We recognize that thinking patterns and learning styles vary and that many different cognitive processes and intelligences should be valued. This topic presents a brief overview of types of intelligences, perception and motivation in order to emphasize the importance of analyzing student populations and matching instructional materials to student needs. Recognizing the important role that software plays in instruction and learning, a good deal of discussion takes place on the selection and evaluation of effective software. www.bsscommunitycollege.in www.bssnewgeneration.in www.bsslifeskillscollege.in 2 www.onlineeducation.bharatsevaksamaj.net www.bssskillmission.in Key Points: 1.Computer's Role in Instruction American education has long incorporated technology in K-12 classrooms tape recorders, televisions, calculators, computers, and many others.

The −f noborder option turns offborder printing, and the −f nocolumns option turns offthe column number heading. The page number prints at the bottom of each page unless disabled with the -f nopagenumbers option. The default output is 80 columns in portrait mode. The "−w"(wide) option selects 132 column output in landscape mode. Pages are scaled to fit on U.S. letter and A4 paper. Special cases for FORTRAN, COBOL, and RPG reproduce vertical lines between columns corresponding to fields on programming template forms for early fixed-format versions of those languages. These lines can be especially advantageous when examining RPG, which still uses fixed-form statements. The −t option allows adding dashed gray lines at additional, user-selectable column boundaries. Among other uses, these customized column markings can delineate fields of fixed-format data records.

Previously reviewed in this series have been the Texas Instruments 771, the Pertec PCC 2000, and the North Star Horizon. And still to come are eight more systems in the under- sls,ooo price range. The goal of this series is to provide users with compara tive information on a number of small systems, information which will be valuable in selecting from among the many alternatives available. We have found that many published comparisons of computing systems report only the technical specifications supplied by manufacturers, and such information is difficult to interpret and seldom comparable across different computers.

Both uni­ also includes the lIOO/SO (report 70C-S77-14) and the processor and multiprocessor configurations 1100/90 (Report 70C-S77-16). are available. The 1100/60 System was the first mainframe. to ma~e use of multi-microprocessor architecture. The anthmetIc and MODELS: 1100/61 B1, C1, C2, E1, E2, H1, and H2; 1100/62 E1 MP, E2MP, H1 MP, and logic portions of the 1100/60 employ sets of nine ~otorola IOSOO microprocessors (4-bit slice) combined WIth ECL H2MP; 1100/63 H1MP and H2MP; and circuitry and multilayer packaging. Sperry Univac terms 1100/64H1MP and H2MP. CONFIGURATION: From 1 to 4 CPUs, these sets microexecution units, which concurrently 512K to 8192K words of main memory, execute parts of the same microinstructions for improved throughput. 1 to 4 IOUs, and 1 to 7 consoles.

  • Quando IBM Ed Apple Cambiarono Il Mondo. SCHEDE DI APPROFONDIMENTO
    Il decennio 1975-1984: quando IBM ed Apple cambiarono il mondo. SCHEDE DI APPROFONDIMENTO Schede realizzate da Lorenzo Tafi Progetto HMR: http://hmr.di.unipi.it/index.html Corso di Storia dell’ Informatica: http://hmr.di.unipi.it/Corso.html Nel decennio preso in considerazione (1975-1984) possiamo vedere come due grandi aziende, l’IBM e la Apple, abbiano rivoluzionato per sempre il mercato dei personal computer creando modelli che sono ancora oggi nella memoria (e sulla scrivania) di tutti noi. L’IBM ha alle spalle una storia ben più lunga di quella della Apple, eppure quest’ultima è riuscita a nascere, emergere e, per certi versi, dominare un mercato nato in quegli anni. Merito del successo delle due aziende va alle persone che hanno fondato e fatto crescere le due compagnie. Dal lato di Big Blue (soprannome dato ad IBM) troviamo Herman Hollerith e Thomas J. Watson; da parte della “Mela morsicata” (così viene anche soprannominata la Apple) Steven P. Jobs e Stephen G. Wozniak. I modelli presi in considerazione sono solo alcuni esempi delle innovazioni che le due aziende hanno lanciato sul mercato e vanno dall’IBM 5100 e l’Apple I, passando per i successori IBM 5110 ed Apple II, fino ad arrivare a modelli più recenti come l’IBM System/23Datamaster, Herman Hollerith, l’IBM PC e Portable PC(sul versante IBM) e l’Apple III, Lisa e Macintosh (sul versante fondatore IBM. Apple). Alcuni contenuti digitali sono stati inseriti quali testimoni del “contrasto” tra le due aziende volte a dominare il mercato dei calcolatori personali.
