Courseware Design Of Multimedia Computer-aided Chemistry Theory And Method

On the theories and methods of Multi-media Computer-Assisted Instruction of Chemistry (MCAIC) courseware exploitation Abstract The use of multi-media computer will provide chemical instruction with both an ideally teaching environment and a broad conception of teaching learning, which inevitably have a great impact on the education and teaching & learning process. How to direct the design and exploitation in the guidance of the studying theories, modem instructional theories, courseware design methods has prove to be a subject worthy of further discussion in the current chemical educational theory and practice. This paper will deal with several problems in MCAIC from three aspects: first, the main function of MCAIC and the importance of using it; second, an analysis of MCAIC's current situation; third, the theories and methods to design coursewarc. Part I discusses the characteristics, significance and main function of CAIC from the following angles: first, students"cognitive exploitation; second, students" acquisition of information; third, the organizing of information in teaching process; forth, the aesthetic function of chemical instruction. The beginning of part II presents a brief introduction of history of exploitation in china. By analyzing MCAI's current situation, existing problems and ways to solve them, this part also puts forward some problem that are imperious to solve in the MCAIC in the middle school. This part will point out particularly that the low quality of some courseware.is rooted both in the lack of theoretical guidance in the courseware design of our country, and in the lack of an detailed analysis of some problem, such as "what to assist"and "how to assist" Part III will emphasize that the constructism studying theory and modern teaching theory are the main guidance to the exploitation of MCAIC. Moreover, it will elaborate the learning environment that is needed in the constructism theory. Furthermore, I will point out that constructism studying theory is of great significance in guiding the courseware design of CAIC. Then this paper gives an emphasis to the methods and main process to develop courseware with the problem-solution courseware as its main type. After a dctailed introduction of the strong points of problem-solution courseware, the paper will elaborate the methodology problem in selecting certain problem and designing the studying process. This paper also discusses some problems, such as the design of courseware structure, the basic process of courseware design. At the end, it will offer its readers several examples of CAIC.
