Describes a computer-aided tracking system for recording and analyzing the location pattern of teachers in the classroom. The technique will enable researchers to monitor teacher classroom mobility and to design correlational and time-series experiments. The results could lead to a better understanding of the nonverbal teaching-learning process.…

A system for effective collection of classroom observation data from teachers in schools was developed. Drawing on the Flanders Interaction Analysis System, a procedure for coding classroom interaction into 10 categories, a system was developed to collect direct observation data with microcomputers. Software was prepared for Tandy computers. Field…

With increasing attention being given to the importance of microcomputers in the schools, there is concern about how new teachers can best be prepared to use the new technology effectively. This paper presents a perspective on teacher training based on three categories in which computers may be used in the classroom: to provide unique learning…
