INTRODUCTION
The word computer is derived from the word
compute. which means to calculate justifying
its usefulness.
 The use of computers in education started in
the 1960s when they are known as teaching
machines. After a decade, in the year
1970,with the advent of microcomputers, the
use of computers increased in education.
.
DEFINITION
A computer is a electronic machine , which
works under the control of a stored
programme, automatically accepting
processing of data to produce designed results.
CAI/CAL
Computer assisted learning is also known as a
computer assisted instruction.
 It refers to introduction or remediation
presented on a computer. Many educational
computer programmers are available online
from computer stores text book companies.
They enhance the teachers instruction in
several ways.
HISTORICAL BACKGROUND OF CAI
 In the year 1966, the first general –purpose system for CAI
was developed at the University of Illinois at urban –
Champaign by Donald Blitzer. It was known as PLATO
(Programmed Logic for Automated Teaching Operations)
System.
 In the year 1976 the first CAI was set up at the Waterford
Elementary School in the Utah for students.
 In the 21st century, the social software system have
revolutionized the use of computer technology in
classrooms by making communication high-tech & cheaper
thereby enabling people to connect through computers.
SAlLENT FEATURES OF CAI/CAL
CAI uses text or multimedia or combined content.
Provides simulated real life problems.
Provides immediate feedback to the learner which
reinforces them.
Records &analyzes the incorrect response
immediately.
Summarizes learner’s performance at the end of the
test.
Provides repetitive drills to improve the participants
knowledge.
Provides game based drills to increase learning
enjoyment.
TYPES OF CAL
LOGO
SIMULATION
CONTROLLED
LEARNING
LOGO
This system was developed by Fearing and
Papart. Logo is a simple programming
language which can be taught to children
.The children who learn logo make up their
own programmers to draw flower or faces
or generate designs on the screen.
SIMULTION
The language enables student to
mount an experiment in a symbolic
form.
CONTROLLED LEARNING
It involves the use of interesting adaptive
strategies. It include both drill practice. Drill
and practice programmers are suplementary
to the regular curriculum followed by the
classroom teacher.
COMPUTER- ASSISTED WRITING
INSTRUCTIONS
A computer programme for writing helps
students with developing ideas, organizing,
outlining and brainstorming. A template
provides the framework and reduce the
physical efforts spent on writing so that can
pay attention to organization and content.
COMPUTER PROGRAMMES FOR WRITING
 WORD PREDICTION
oSpeech;- Specific programmers that identify
words students use repeatedly ; when a
student types the first few letters ,the
programmed lists the frequently used words
that starts with those letters.
o Speed up the typing process.
Contd….
SPEECH –TO-TEXT
• Student must be taught how to use the
programme.
• Students speak into a microphone & the
programmed types the words.
• Programmed must be “trained” to the
student’s word pronunciation& speech style.
• Increased speech from voice to text.
Text-to-speech
• Student can hear what they have typed
to check if says what they want it to say.
• Good for editing.
Spellchecker
Helps students identify misspelled
words.
Automatically corrects words if the
teacher sit to programme in that
way.
Disadvantages of CAL
 Inadequate training of teachers &inadequacy of
instructional media.
 The computer fails to appreciate the students emotions
the warm emotional climate created by the teacher in
the classroom interaction with the student is lacking in
CAL.
 It fails to develop essential feature of language
competency.
 It is a mechanical approach to education
The peripheral equipments puts constraints in he way a
student can interact with the computer.

Education
 Knowledge of computer can be applied to
prepare slides in MS power point on the
topics to be taught to the student.
 Knowledge of multimedia helps the nursing
teachers & students teach effectively.
 Education through internet & CAL has
simplified education in nursing schools.
Contd………
A computer aids in learning and institutions:
 By providing information & instructions.
 By asking questions.
 By doing difficult calculations.
 By being tireless& repetitive.
 By simulated process.
 By selecting the right speed for providing information
to individual learner
Administration
 Preparing record of nursing students by
lectures and nursing superintendent.
 Preparing & maintaining record of
assessment & results.
 Preparing duty roster that saves time.
 Preparing drafts of a plan annually, monthly
&weekly.
Hospital
 Computer keeps record of patient’s health status during
hospital stay & OPD.
 Hospital information management system (HIMS) helps to
have access to the patient treatment chart , operation list or
anaesthetic record; this is possible with computer knowledge.
 Computer helps nurses to manage routine document in a
fraction of a time , which may otherwise take up a lot of time
manually.
 It increases productivity of nurses.
 Other function in hospitals, i.e autonomic generation of
reminder letters , determination of milestones & so on are
performed with the help of appropriate softwares.
Research
Computer are used to get information on the
research works being carried out via the internet.
They help support research finding with other
research that has been carried out.
A knowledge of computer reduces the time taken for
documentation which usually takes time when done
manually. it increases their productivity & provide
best patient centered care.
