Computer-Based Education

Computer-based training (CBT) is an interactive instructional approach where the computer takes the place of an instructor by providing questions, choices, or decisions to the student and feedback based on their responses. CBT uses courseware on the computer to deliver interactive training sessions across disciplines as the primary delivery method, replacing textbooks. Suggested CBT activities include drill-and-practice, tutorials, simulations, educational games, and problem solving. Advantages of CBT include allowing learning from the desk and presenting training in modules with overviews, demonstrations, movies, and quizzes to reinforce learning.

Definition
Computer-Based
Training
is
a
kind
of educational
technologies inspired by various behaviourist theories.
Computer-Aided Instruction (CAI), Computer-Assisted Instruction
(CAI), Computer-Based Instruction (CBI).
CBT is an interactive instructional approach in which the computer,
taking the place of an instructor, provides a series of stimuli to the
student ranging from questions to be answered to choices or decisions
to be made. The CBT then provides feedback based on the student's
response.
Using the computer for training and instruction, CBT programs are
called "courseware" and provide interactive training sessions for all
disciplines.
Courses using the computer as the primary delivery method of
instruction. No textbook is required. It may be self-paced, a selfcontained interactive instruction on a CD, or instruction through e-mail
and small group computer conferences with other students.

Suggested Activities:
drill-and-practice
tutorial
simulation
educational games
problem solving
applications.

Advantages of CBT
Computer Based Training (CBT) offers the
opportunity to learn without leaving your desk.
Presented in modules that reflect the format of
an IDBS training course, CBT delivers an
overview of key functionality followed by movies
and interactive demonstrations.
To further reinforce learning, modules may also
include a series of quizzes.
