Computer-Assisted Learning The student learns
by interacting with a program stored in the computer.
This program is designed to react to the
student’s needs according to predetermined pedagogical
criteria. In this case the student conducts
a “distant dialog” with the authors of the educational
program, who - in a well-designed program -
will have considered the learning difficulties involved
in the topics studied, and designed accordingly
a set of remedial interventions. Enrichment
units should have been included also, to attend
to the interests of students who want to study
in depth, beyond the curriculum requirements.
