What’s Age Got to Do with It? Teaching Older Students in Computer-Aided Classrooms

Angela Crow

Abstract

Suggests teachers helping older students in computer-aided classrooms should (1) expect these students to perform more slowly and to make more errors; (2) avoid comparisons that cause confusion due to students’ prior knowledge; (3) be aware of the danger of overload from information clutter; and (4) sequence assignments based on scaffolding concepts and on building skills through repetition.
