Yes Student initiated? Yes The Philosophy Department seeks funding to upgrade the existing lab in what is now called the Philosophy Commons. The Commons Lab provides essential computing resources to undergraduates and graduate students. We seek funding for nine new PCs and four new Macintoshes. In addition to being very unreliable due to frequent crashes and shutdowns, the computers are unable to efficiently run the latest operating systems. Background The Philosophy Department has over 250 undergraduate majors and 35 graduate students. The number of undergraduate majors has increased 35% in the last two years. The recent addition of a new undergraduate degree program in the history and philosophy of science, along with the coming addition of a new program in applied ethics, ensures continued growth. The majority of our students use the computers to write class papers, professional papers, prep for class, and to conduct database searches. There are also online translation engines used by those working with Greek and Latin texts. The use of logic software is required for some courses. Finally, one of the workstations is used for the Philosophy Writing Center, adjacent to the lab, which provides support for anyone writing class papers.

Reporter: Siok Lian Tan Panelists: Tony Caramia, Eastman School of Music Michelle Conda, University of Cincinnati Martha Hilley, University of Texas Fred Kern, University of North Texas Kenon Renfrow, University of Miami Moderator: Andrew Hisey, Oberlin College Conservatory of Music The First National Group Piano and Piano Pedagogy Forum opened with a session featuring five group piano experts discussing how they adapted their curriculum to the size and nature of their institutions. After the panelists described their individual situations, they fielded questions from the audience. Michelle Conda shared her views on the importance of including non-major group piano class as a course in a university. Her past experience at the University of Toledo demonstrated that there was a high demand for non-major classes. She initially started off with the beginning level and within a few years had expanded the course sequence to four levels. All four levels of piano classes were filled every semester. The high demand also occurred when she offered non-major piano classes at University of Cincinnati. She stated that teaching these classes was extremely rewarding. She also pointed out that non-major piano classes were useful to some music majors as well; these classes could serve as preparation for music majors who were not ready for standard music classes. They could also be used as group teaching demonstration classes for piano pedagogy students.

Why is this generation important to piano teachers in the next century? First of all, the next few years will likely be a time of transition for piano teachers. We will have a foot in the past for students who want and expect traditional piano lessons, but we will need to have a foot in the future for the Net Generation. Who are they, and how do we prepare to teach them? Don Tapscott tells us that the Net Generation - 80 million strong - are so bathed in bits that they think it's part of the natural landscape. Two-thirds of them use a personal computer at home or at school. They now represent 30 percent of the population, as compared to the baby boomer's 29 percent. A primary difference between the two is that boomers have embraced computer and information technology, but they have done so under duress. Their world was shaped by television, a passive and controlling influence.

KEYBOARD DEBATE DECEMBER 27, 1995 TRANSCRIPT Elizabeth Farnsworth gets two perspectives on technology in the classroom. Damon Moore is an eighth grade science teacher, who serves on a national commission promoting training teachers with technology. Clifford Stoll is an astronomer, and author of Silicon Snake Oil: Second Thoughts on the Information Highway. Stoll is skeptical of technology's promise. ELIZABETH FARNSWORTH: Now, Thank you both for being with us. Clifford Stoll, you just heard that glowing report. What's wrong with it? CLIFFORD STOLL: (San Francisco) It'sthey're all over the place. There's this wonderful feeling that, wow, computers make learning fun, it's going to be wonderful out there, students have lots of information and boy, they're going to be really smart. But there's this wide gulf between information, which computers provide lots of, and knowledge, which computers provide none of. Moreover ELIZABETH FARNSWORTH: Wait, let me interrupt you a minutewhy can't they provide knowledge? Why is not reading and learning about say the Odyssey via computer as good as reading, reading it in a book? MR. STOLL: Because reading the original Odyssey means turning pages and reading it. Very few, if any, people read the Odyssey on a computer screen. You just can't read more than three or four pages. Yeah, you can turn it into a game. You can turn into a multimedia, gosh, wow, I'm going to go from here to there and have a lot of fun while prowling around on maps, but are you reading the text, or have you simply marginalized and pushed aside the reading and the thinking part and turned it into a game?

Remove Ads Support RinkWorks Subscriber Login Keyboards The quintessential input device, the keyboard, despite its similarities to the typewriter, is nevertheless the subject of great confusion. Some of the most important, basic keys are misunderstood. Some even fail to recognize that hitting a letter on the keyboard causes the same letter to appear on the screen. With a keyboard as a prop, hysterical antics of many sorts can follow. We have a service contract at a local college. I got a call one day from someone who said that their Mac IIsi was having a problem. Upon questioning him, he said that whenever he typed on the keyboard, the image on the monitor was shaking. All sorts of monitor problems ran through my mind. I asked him if it was only when he typed and he replied yes. Well, since it was a contract, I figured we'd better go see what was happening. My tech called me about ten minutes after arriving and reported that the problem was not the computer, but his desk . The desk vibrated every time he typed on his keyboard. I am still shaking my head on this one. The sad thing is that this guy has "Dr." in front of his name and is a professor at a major college. For a computer programming class, I sat directly across from someone, and our computers were facing away from each other. A few minutes into the class, she got up to leave the room. I reached between our computers and switched the inputs for the keyboards. She came back and started typing and immediately got a distressed look on her face. She called the teacher over and explained that no matter what she typed, nothing would happen. The teacher tried everything. By this time I was hiding behind my monitor and quaking red-faced. I started to type, "Leave me alone!"

Teaching Old Mice New Tricks: Innovations in Computer Mouse Design Shumin Zhai and I. Scott MacKenzie IBM Almaden Research Center 650 Harry Rd, San Jose, CA95123, USA University of Guelph Guelph, Ontario, Canada N1G 2W1 Abstract This paper reviews recent innovations in the following categories: increasing the degrees of freedom of a computer mouse for 3D interfaces, adding tactile feedback, and incorporating scrolling and zooming capabilities in a mouse. The results showed that it is possible to add new "tricks" to the mouse to substantially improve the ease and performance of interaction with computers. 1. Introduction: Computer Mouse – an "old" Technology The computer mouse, together with bit-mapped video displays, served as a triggering technology for the point-and-click GUI (graphical user interface) revolution in the computer industry. Today, the mouse is the most frequently handled device in many people's daily lives: more frequent, perhaps, than cash, the steering wheel, door knobs, pens, hammers, or screw drivers. Not only is the term mouse accepted in reputable dictionaries (e.g., Concise Oxford Dictionary , 9th ed.), the verb variant, mousing, is also widely used as jargon.

About Trail and New Trail ... Search History Trails The Computer as Teacher By Steve Hunka The demands placed upon a computer when it is used for instruction are not minor. The computing system must be able to operate sufficiently fast to give each student the feeling that the system has his undivided attention. The computer system must be able to present pictures, such as x-rays, electrocardiograms, statistical charts, tables, and graphs, in color or black and white. The same system must be able to permit the very young child as well as the sophisticated adult to communicate with it; for example, a very young child cannot use the typewriter keyboard but has the capacity to point at an object or drawing. Similarly, the young child may not be able to read, and thus requires a voice to give him directions: a more sophisticated adult might wish to hear a recording of the sound of a defective heart. Thus, an audio system is required for the computer. The computing system operated by the Division of Educational Research Services is an IBM 1500 system which has all the devices necessary to teach very young students as well as mature adults. This computer has connected to it nineteen learning stations. Or computer terminals. Sixteen of the learning stations contain an image projector capable of showing any one of a thousand pictures in black and white or color, a television screen on which textual material or drawings may be placed (A Hebrew or Russian character set is no problem since an author can design and hold within the computer the characters he requires for his course.) The same station has a keyboard for student responses, or the student may use a special light pencil to point to the television screen Finally, each terminal contains an audio play-record unit which can play prerecorded messages to the students or record the student's own answers for later analysis by the instructor.

73. How To Set Up Computers In Your Classroom The monitor should be eyelevel and the keyboard elbow-high. Set up one computer as a shared presentation/teacher work-station in the front of the room. http://teacher.scholastic.com/professional/teachtech/techsetup.htm

Scholastic Home About Us Site Map Search ... Tools How to Set Up Computers in Your Classroom by Peggy Healy Stearns, Ph.D. Whether you have the latest multimedia computer or a classic MS-DOS or Apple II machine, a classroom computer can be a motivating and powerful tool. Here are some tips for setting up and using technology in your classroom. First decide how you're most likely to use your computer. Presentation station: Teach a lesson, lead a class discussion, or let your students take center stage. Learning center: Students work on programs and projects individually or in small groups. Teacher workstation: Keep student records, generate reports, create activity sheets, assessment materials, newsletters for parents, and much more. If you have one computer . . . Pick a home base for your computer depending on how you expect to use it most often. Remember that you'll need access to electrical outlets and, if available, your phone or cable line. If possible, keep your computer on a sturdy mobile cart so you can move it around the room. As you and your students develop more expertise, you'll probably use the computer in a greater variety of ways. For example, even if you initially use it as a student workstation, plan ahead so you can move it to the front of the room to use as a presentation tool. Make sure the height of your computer station is appropriate. The monitor should be eye-level and the keyboard elbow-high. Use a mouse pad so the mouse rolls easily and stays clean.

74. How Computers Should Be Used At X College An explanation of how computers can be used as effective teaching tools in a 100 hours to familiarize their students with the computer and keyboard. http://www.kenkifer.com/writing/rhodes.htm

ARTICLE: How Computers Should Be Used at X College An explanation of how computers can be used as effective teaching tools in a two-year college English class. How Computers Should Be Used at X College The paper has been modified only by substituting "X" or "our" for the name of the school and by using "composition class" and "remedial English" for the class titles and numbers. E very newspaper, radio news program, or TV newscast seems to include a mention of computers these days. As far as sales are concerned, the computer is the hoola-hoop or Walkman of the nineties. However, computers are more than a fad. Computers can improve the quantity, the quality, and the presentation of work output. In addition, the job market is undergoing a violent shift towards the flexible, communicative, self-motivated worker: the worker who can get tasks accomplished. The student who craves success needs to acquire skills in every area but must be computer literate to enhance and implement these skills. For this reason, our college needs to emphasize computer use. Experience at X College shows that the best method to get the students to use computers is by having them use the computers in class. I t may seem odd that English teachers everywhere have jumped on the computer class bandwagon. It does not seem odd to anyone who has taught a computer writing class. Students in these classes take more care in writing their papers and go back to correct errors that they would otherwise ignore. This quarter, with my composition classes divided between the computer lab and a comfortable classroom with broad, flat tables, I have noticed that the students working in the classroom come in late, try to leave early, and work in a desultory fashion while the students working in the computer lab tend to start early, finish late, and stay focused on their tasks.

80. Elementary Music Education-Centers In The Music Classroom A neat trend in classroom teaching is the use of centers, which can also be I hope to add a computer center and a keyboard center when I have time. http://www.musiceducationmadness.com/centers.shtml

Centers in the Music Classroom by Karen Stafford A neat trend in classroom teaching is the use of centers, or stations, to help students work at their own paces, in different methods, to obtain the same goal of learning. Centers can also be a terrific learning tool in the music classroom, allowing students to learn the same information, but in different ways, and in a way that allows them to work at their own speed (within reason, of course!) Centers don't have to be anything elaborate. I have seven centers: listening, games, recorder, creativity, reading, computer, and keyboard. Each center has a set of instructions and a question page to fill out . The kids are required to finish 2 centers a quarter (they get two rounds at computer because it's the most time consuming). Each center also has three folders:one for the master copies of the questions, one for completed papers, and one for papers that are incomplete. Each day we do centers, I tell the students which center they are assigned. If a center wasn't finished the previous session, they are allowed to go back. After that, if they still aren't finished, they must go on to a different one to keep the rotation even, and will eventually return to the center they have not completed. Following are contributions I received from other teachers on their centers:
