Description: "This text provides students with an introduction to basic computer skills and experience, enhanced by helpful pedagogical aids, including case studies and highlighted features such as Portfolio Development, Reflective Practice, Computing Timelines, Filmographies, bibliographical sources, and a text-linked glossary of key computer terms." "New in the Second Edition: In addition to being thoroughly updated, a totally new Chapter 1 has been added to the book, "Creating an Electronic Portfolio," with activities linked to the standards for educational computing established by the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE). Electronic portfolio activities at the end of each chapter give students the hands-on practical skills they need, and at the same time, cover the necessary theoretical and conceptual material for an introductory educational computing course."--BOOK JACKET.
