Technology-Enabled Curriculum Enhancements

Robert Cavalier

Syllabus, Vol. 10, No. 2, September 1996, p. 20-24

It has often been mentioned that while the use of information technology initially involves the porting of current materials to new environments, (e.g., photographic slides to presentation software), the real impact will begin when it alters the curriculum itself. This article explores three such transitions which serve as good examples of the impact of technology on the curriculum. The three transition subjects are "Image Databases and the Teaching of Aesthetics and Art History", "Multimedia Case Studies in Applied Ethics", and "Simulation Models in Conflict Resolution."
