Many recent national reports on education suggest that one step toward solving the crisis in schools and teaching is rapid introduction of computers into schools. People will witness the creation of enhanced jobs for a relative few and deskilled and boring work for the majority, with even those boring, deskilled jobs increasingly hard to find. From one to five jobs for office workers will be lost for every new computer terminal introduced-and this situation will not be limited to office work. Before giving schools over to the requirements of the new technology and the corporation, people must be certain it will benefit all, not mostly those who already possess economic and cultural power. If the new technology is accepted uncritically, the current emphasis on computers in class-rooms may lead to the deskilling and depowering of a considerable number of teachers. Given the already heavy work load of most teachers, and given the expense, most teachers will probably be given very little training in computers, their social effects, and programming. pubtype: Periodical doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y dt: @attributes: year: 1987 holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
