Primary teachers need to incorporate the use of computers in their
daily lesson plans, but how can this be done most effectively to
promote learning skills in the classroom? In this fascinating book,
Lyn Dawes and Rupert Wegerif outline a strategy for enhancing the
effectiveness of computers for teaching and learning with an
emphasis on: * raising pupil achievement in the core subject areas
* developing collaborative learning in small groups * using group
discussions as a way of improving general communication, as well as
thinking and reasoning skills. The approach is to use computers as
a support for collaborative learning in small groups and this book
presents ways to prepare pupils for talking, learning and thinking
together around computers. Excerpts from pupils' discussions
illustrate the main issues and guidance on lesson planning and
developing and choosing appropriate software is also provided.
Thinking and Learning with ICT will be a valuable resource for
primary teachers and student teachers.
