W.</b></font></p> <p><font size="3">1995, <i>Technology, Open Learning and Distance Education</i>, London: Routledge. </font></p> <p><font size="3"><em>A book which provides an eminently useable methodology for making competent and informed decisions on choice and use of technologies in education. Bates sets out criteria for decision-making based on an analysis of common questions each institution must answer for itself, to do with access, costs, teaching and learning, interactivity and user-friendliness, organisational issues, novelty, and speed. </em></font></p> <p><font size="3"><em>Teachers and managers will find the first chapter especially useful. In it, Bates proposes '12 golden rules for using technology in education and training: good teaching matters; each medium has its own aesthetic; educational technologies are flexible; there is no super-technology; all major media types should be available to teachers and learners; balance variety with economy; interaction is essential; student numbers are critical; new technologies are not necessarily better than old ones; teachers need training to use technologies effectively; teamwork is essential; and technology is not the issue but how and what do we want students to learn is. </em></font></p> <p><font size="3"><em>Subsequent chapters deal with the educational, technical and cost issues involved in technology selection and implementation of four major types of media: print, television, audio (including telephone), and the computer. He concludes with a thoughtful look at the future of technology and its limitations in education and training.</em></font><em> </em></p> <table cellpadding="7" cellspacing="0" width="90%"> <tr> <td valign="top"></td> </tr> </table> <hr> <p><font size="4"><b>Catchpole, Michael</b></font></p> <p><font size="3">1993, Interactive media: the bridge between distance and classroom education, in <i>Distance Education Futures</i>, ed.

Laurillard sets out a framework to help teachers think about the nature and processes of learning and how best to use and combine new and established media in their teaching. Part 1 explores students' learning, and what it is that they need from educational technology. Part 11 looks at individual teaching methods and media, including non-interactive media (lectures, print, audio), hypermedia (CD-Rom and the Web), and interactive media (simulations, modelling programs). Part 111 examines design methodology, designing learning activities, setting up the learning context, and maintaining quality.</em></font></p> <table cellpadding="7" cellspacing="0" width="90%"> <tr> <td></td> </tr> </table> <hr> <p><font size="4"><b>MacKinnon, Allan, Walshe, Bridget, Cummings, Michael & Velonis, Ursula</b></font></p> <p><font size="3">1995, An inventory of pedagogical considerations for interactive television, <i>Journal of Distance Education</i>, Vol. 10, No. 1, pp. 75-94. </font></p> <p><font size="3"><em>The presence of cable TV has enabled British Columbian educators to use TV for teaching in increasingly sophisticated ways over the last 20 years.
