Computerized aided teaching system

Project Abstract

<p> The term Aided teaching system covers a range of computer-based packages, which aim to provide interactive instruction usually in a specific subject area, and many predate the Internet. These can range from sophisticated and expensive commercial packages to applications developed by projects in other educational institutions or national initiatives to simple solutions developed by individuals with no funding or support to tackle a very Interactive Tutor problem. The amount of time and money invested in development is high and partly because of the very subject specific nature of the education market as well as the very personalized nature of the teaching process. In general, the use of computers in education through aided teaching system has been sporadic; a great deal of effort was expended with little general impact. Many of those academics that took part in that earlier crusade are now interactive through the effectiveness of aided teaching system. There are still good reasons to use aided teaching system rather than Internet based technologies. Computerize aided teaching system is run either straight from a CD or floppy disk drive or over an Interactive Tutor network. This means that aided teaching system packages have the potential to offer more advanced, interactive, multimedia teaching experiences than it is currently reasonable to expect from the web <br></p>

Project Overview

<p> </p><div><p><strong>&nbsp; 1.0 &nbsp; INTRODUCTION</strong></p><p>Computerized aided teaching system is similar to the experiential model of teaching. The adherents of experiential teaching are fairly adamant about how we learn. Teaching seldom takes place by rote. Teaching occurs because we immerse ourselves in a situation in which we are forced to perform. You get feedback from the computer output and then adjust your thinking-process if needed. Unfortunately, most classroom courses are not teaching systems. The way the instructors attempt to help their students acquire skills and knowledge has absolutely nothing to do with the way students actually learn. Many instructors rely on lectures and tests, and memorization. All too often, they rely on “telling.” No one remembers much that’s taught by telling, and what’s told doesn’t translate into usable skills. Certainly, we learn by doing, failing, and practicing until we do it right. The computer assisted teaching serve this purpose. If the teaching environment is focused on background information, knowledge of terms and new concepts, the learner is likely to learn that basic information successfully. However, this basic knowledge may not be sufficient to enable the learner to carry out successfully the on-the-job tasks that require more than basic knowledge. With recent advances in multimedia technology, computer-aided language learning (CALL) has emerged as a tempting alternative to traditional modes of direct teaching, the integration of sound, voice interaction, text, video, and animation has made it possible to create self-paced interactive teaching environments that promise to enhance the classroom model of language teaching significantly and effectively.</p><p><strong>1.1 &nbsp; </strong><strong>BACKGROUND OF STUDY</strong></p><p>Early aided teaching, base on computer base learning/training often attempt to replicate autocratic teaching styles the role of the teaching system was assumed to be for transferring knowledge, as opposed to system later base on computer supported collaborative teaching (CSCT), which encourage the shared development of knowledge. As early as 1993, Graziadei William described an online computer-delivered lecture, tutorial and assessment project using electronic program that allow student and instructor to create a virtual instructional classroom Environment in service and teaching (REST), In 1997 Graziadei, W. et al, published an article entitled Building Asynchronous and synchronous teaching learning environment</p><p><strong>1.2STATEMENT OF PROBLEM</strong></p><p><strong>The problems that necessitated this project include:</strong></p><p>The difficulties people face during teaching.</p><p>The vast scope of English language.</p><p>Inability of some people to understand English language pronunciation.</p><p>Improper ways of enlightening people on English language.significan</p><p>Lack of conducive environment for teaching.</p><p>Time wasted in impacting English language knowledge to the people.</p><p>The need arise for the development of software for computerized aided teaching system on English language in order to solve these problems.</p><p></p><p>purpose of this study is to develop Computerized aided teaching system on English language. The program will assist people to know more about English language.</p><p><strong>&nbsp;1.3 &nbsp; SIGNIFICANCE OF STUDY</strong></p><p>With the growth in information technology, the study offers numerous examples in software tutor. People do not need to depend totally on English lecturers to know more about English language but slot aided teaching system software on English language to listen to it. Time wasted in educating people on English language is reduced to the bare minimum as the software help to facilitate work. &nbsp;Individuals on their own can also buy the software in order to know more about English language.</p><p><strong>1.4AIMS AND OBJECTIVES</strong></p><p>The aims and objectives of this project are listed below:</p><p>Increase the awareness and understanding of the value of aided teaching system on English language in our society.</p><p>Achieve efficient and reasonable regulation of Computerized aided teaching system.</p><p>Interact with appropriate government agencies on reimbursement and technology assessment policies</p><p>Expand the global acceptance of the Computerized aided teaching system</p><p>Improve regulatory harmonization of the global market for Computerized aided teaching system</p><p>Develop software that will assist people in knowing more about English language.</p><p>To eliminate time wasted when educating people on English language.</p><p>All these contributed to show that the Computerized aided teaching system are now been influence by information technology.</p><p><strong>&nbsp;1.5 &nbsp; SCOPE OF STUDY</strong></p><p>This project work is narrowed to Computerized aided teaching system on English language for schools and individual use only</p><p><strong>&nbsp;1.6 &nbsp; LIMITATION OF STUDY</strong></p><p>Owing to the scope of this project work as stated above, this project work is limited to the Computerized aided teaching system on English language.</p><p>&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; It is important to mention here that time was a major constraint in the course of fact finding. It is also wise to mention here that some information we need to work with were not collected because of the unwillingness of the some medical personnel in reviewing such vital information needed for this project work.</p><p><strong>1.7ASSUMPTION OF STUDY</strong></p><p>One of the major assumptions made in this project work is that manual methods of enlightening on English language are times ineffective, time wasting and high level of energy dissipation.</p><p>It is also assumed that with the level of development in information technology, there is a serious demand to join this trend of information technology.</p><p>It is also assumed Computerized aided teaching system on English language software will enhance and facilitate educational work.</p><p><strong>&nbsp; 1.8 &nbsp; IMPORTANCE OF STUDY</strong></p><p>The research study is aimed at elimination and eradication all manual system if teaching English Language, the project will help initiate effective and wonderful performance in English for the benefits of leaders of tomorrow.</p><p>Moreover, this research work will be of great benefit to the future researcher on the same problem because of approach to the fact findings not as passive exercise rather all information were examined critically and challenged.</p><p><strong>&nbsp; 1.9 &nbsp; DEFINITION OF TERMS</strong></p><p>i. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;<strong>Computer Literacy: – </strong>Means being able to operate a computer system, to perform any task within its capabilities.</p><p>ii. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;<strong>Program: –</strong>&nbsp;These are set of logical instructions given to a computer system to enable it perform some task.</p><p>iii. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;<strong>Programming: –</strong>&nbsp;These are program a system use to do a certain work at interval.</p><p>iv. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; <strong>Programmer</strong>: – means someone who is capable of programming a computer to perform specific task.</p><p>v. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; <strong>Computer Science: –</strong>This is a department created to cover programming languages and numerical analysis, logic and all formation, mathematics modeling and the theory of computability.</p><p>vi. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; <strong>Computer Scientist: –</strong>&nbsp;These consist of those that studied the course and graduated from various computer science departments in various tertiary institutions in the world.</p><p>vii. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; <strong>Random Access: –</strong>&nbsp;This grants the user to make choice i.e. to access randomly the particular topic he/she wants without going sequentially (one by one).</p><p>viii. &nbsp; &nbsp; <strong>Local Area Network: –</strong>&nbsp;This means to connect several micro computers to a single storage units usually, these computers are located in the same building and different departments making are of terminal connected to the main storage unit.</p><p>ix. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; <strong>Software: –</strong>&nbsp;These are set of program written which help to computer system to perform some specific function</p><p></p></div><h3></h3><br> <br><p></p>
