摘要 美国各地的教育工作者都关心向学生提供基于计算机的教学计划的问题。这一过程要求教师接受计算机使用培训,以便在课堂上实施应用程序。作为成人学习者,他们在学习过程中经常会感到焦虑和沮丧。过度的焦虑会抑制学习并阻止这些人熟练使用计算机。这项研究表明,个体的焦虑水平会随着时间的推移而降低,并且这种变化的时间根据参与者之前的经历水平而有所不同。初学者需要足够的时间使用计算机来降低这些焦虑水平,教育工作者应谨慎对待短期在职活动,这些活动在与初学者一起工作时应尽量减少与计算机的接触。
AbstractEducators throughout the United States are concerned with the issue of delivering computer-based instructional programs to their students. Such a process requires that teachers receive training on the uses of computers in order to implement applications in the classroom. As adult learners they often experience anxiety and frustration during the process of learning. Excessive levels of anxiety can inhibit learning and prevent these individuals from becoming proficient in the use of the computer. This study indicated that the lowering of an individual’s anxiety level occurs over time, and that the timing of such change differs according to the level of previous experience of the participant. Beginners require adequate time working with the computer to allow these anxiety levels to lower, and educators should be cautious about using short-term inservice activities which allow minimal computer contact when working with beginning adults.
