Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

This book comes from an IFIP conference on computer graphics and education held in Spain in 1991. The aim of the conference was to bring together some of the most active people in the international field to examine the current state of graphics technology for education; discuss how education is taking advantage of graphics; consider changes in educational systems to increase the use of graphics; and to project what graphics technologies will be available in five years for educational use. The book contains papers from speakers and participants in the conference as well as reports from conference working groups. The papers are divided into three groups multimedia and hypermedia, visual thinking and visualization, and classroom experience. The reader will get a good understanding of the breadth of opportunity offered by computer graphics as an educational tool, will see a number of current and emerging educational applications of graphics to education that challenge us to see graphics in our own teaching, and should have a better understanding of the direction graphics technologies are taking that can greatly increase the educational opportunities they offer.

Reseña del editor

This book contains a selection of papers presented at the Computer Graphics and Education '91 Conference, held from 4th to 6th Apri11991, in Begur, Spain. The conference was organised under the auspices of the International Federation for Information Processing (IPIP) Working Group 5.10 on Computer Graphics. The goal of the organisers was to take a forward look at the impact on education of anticipated developments in graphics and related technologies, such as multimedia, in the next five years. We felt that at a time when many educational establishments are facing financial stringency and when major changes are taking place in patterns of education and training, this could be valuable for both educators and companies developing the technology: for educators, because they are often too bogged down in day-to-day problems to undertake adequate forward planning, and for companies, to see some of the problems faced by educators and to see what their future requirements might be.
