CBT Computer Based Training
- 1. CBT Computer Based Training
- 2. Computer Based Training: definition training program (not connected to a network): computer takes the teacher's role type of education students learn by executing special training programs on computers product containing the pre-build learning material CD-Rom or online packet
- 3. Computers take over: instruction management of learning/teaching processes monitoring learners´ progress providing feedback assessing final results
- 4. In this sense CBT is close in meaning to some other concepts: CAI Computer-Assisted Instruction CMI Computer-Managed Instruction CBI Computer-Based Instruction CAL Computer-Assisted Learning CAT Computer-Assisted Testing
- 5. although CBT equals or includes CAI CMI, CBU, CAL, CAT mostly CBT denominates the product
- 6. as far as Forms of Learning are concerned, CBT can be used for: Formal learning Non-formal learning Informal learning
- 7. CBT and Learning Theories : Behaviorism – gave the concept of individualized instruction, the idea of a continuous control of effectiveness Cognitivism - led to provide hints instead of giving an immediate feedback. Constructivism - led to include open problem solving situations
- 8. Types of CBT depending on the teaching method – pedagogic strategy Demonstration Tutorial Simulation
- 9. Demonstration is best used to support the introduction of new information applied widely for creation of instruction books is similar to E-book concerning the learning method
- 10. Tutorial main feature: a sequential manner of introducing new information useful for teaching factual information, simple discrimination, rules, and simple application of rules
- 11. Tutorial - type variations Drill and Skill practice - used after initial instruction when mastery of a new skill or information is desired Problem solving - used to augment higher order thinking skills IST = Intelligent Tutorial Systems - provide direct feedback to students, without the intervention of human beings, whilst performing a task.
- 12. Simulation used when practicing a skill in its real context is too costly or dangerous (such as military or pilot training) used to model real-world situations type variation: Training games competition elements provide motivating and engaging opportunities for practicing skills
- 13. some historical notes Beginnings: military purposes testing, management Development for the professional education: dependent on the economical factors and suitability for non-formal learning Stages of the development for the school education infrastructural factors evaluation problems
- 14. CBT – Mind Map
- 15. Evaluation of CBT with respect to following aspects : Technology - concerning program operation Contents - meeting audience interests Didactics - adequate pedagogic strategy
- 16. Program Operation: issues of consideration Compatibility with the system Bugs and breaks Treatment of users´ errors Users´ control over the program operation Clarity of directions Usability of graphics, sound, color capabilities Usefulness of Help/Instructions Editor's permission of preview material (financial expenses involved) Checklists on technical issues Teacher's and students´ degree of computer competence
- 17. Content accuracy Utility of CBT for specific education sectors - e.g., computer operating instruction Inadequacy of CBT for other education fields - e.g., communicative competence Clarity of the material goals - correctness of presentation
- 18. Pedagogical evaluation Insufficient and inadequate research on this aspect : technological innovations advertised as being effective are taken to be effective interest in quantity and spread of technology investments more than in evaluation of educational adequacy inadequacy of evaluation formats, e.g. science research reports comparing the incomparable - incompatibility of precise computer language and vague learning theories
- 19. Checklists and Guides SELECTING AND IMPLEMENTING COMPUTER-BASED TRAINING Selecting training medium Selecting type of CBT Making CBT choices Using CBT
- 21. Pedagogigal dimensions - checklist
- 22. Benefits of CBT (Learning Situation) self-paced, flexible, individualized, convenient suitable educational method for adults, on-the job and off-the-job availability immediate feedback and scoring possible integrated texts, graphics, video and sound increased control and self-control possible increased learning satisfaction and motivation, (trendy method) reduced resource requirements
- 23. Drawbacks of CBT (Learning Situation) high costs of supplying software and hardware infrastructure technical and didactic limitations: technical errors, unclear orders or instructions limited feedback narrow possibilities of interacting and creating small variation of practicing structures, e.g. multiple-choice or completion tests - passive practicing
- 24. more drawbacks a good degree of the technical competence of the user needed high requirements of self-structuring (self-discipline) and organizing facilities of the user: “ serendipidity-effect” social isolation
- 25. Authoring Tool / Authoring System AT is a software package which developers use to create and package content deliverable to end users AS is a program that allows a non-programmer to easily create software with programming features
- 26. Free Test Drive of EasyCBT Authoring Tool Easy Tutor displays the material to be taught, screen by screen. Easy Test tests student's understanding, and records results for analysis. Easy Quiz presents 'pop-quizzes' to reinforce learning. Easy Book supplies supplemental learning material in Electronic Book format.
