Analyzes on the Survey of Telecomputing and Information Behavior in Special Education

通过个人计算机进行的远程计算作为一种积极参与社会的工具的作用日益增强，甚至在特殊教育领域也受到了越来越多的关注。然而，在使用远程计算作为一种交流媒介的过程中，存在着各种“心理障碍”。我们向参与远程计算的教师发出了一份关于远程计算主题的问卷，以调查教师使用远程计算的程度和程度、使用的目的和对使用远程计算的焦虑程度。调查结果如下：从事远程计算实践的教师比例相对较低。大多数教师认为远程计算在不久的将来将不可避免地引入学校。然而，由于远程计算作为一种通信手段的作用越来越大，因此有必要引导教师使用远程计算在残疾儿童的教育中。此外，在不使用远程计算通信工具的群体中，对远程计算的焦虑程度相对较高。此外，远程计算在残疾儿童的教育中的作用越来越大分析了远程计算在特殊教育中推广应用存在的问题，探讨了进一步的对策，提出了在特殊教育中应用远程计算的建构主义课程，并对其有效性进行了探讨。

The telecomputing through personal computers is increasing it's role as a tool for active participation in the society and the greater attention has been paid on it even in a field of special education.It, however, is a fact that various "Psychological barrier" exists in the use of telecomputing as a communication media.A form of questionnaires on the theme has been sent to the teacher involved in a special education, for the purpose of surveying the extent and degree of present state of practise, the aims of utilization and the anxiety towards the use of telecomputing.The findings of the survey are as follows ; percentage of teachers who are engaged in the practise of telecomputing is relatively low.A majority of teachers are in the belief that the telecomputing will inevitably be introduced to the school in the near future.Necessity to guide the teachers, though, for the use of the telecomputing in the education of handicapped children are well recognized because of increasing role of telecomputing as a means of communications.Relative high of the anxiety towards the telecomputing is indicated amoung the group, non-user of the communication tool.In addition, the problems in promotion of the educational use of the telecomputing in a special education are analyzed and the further strategy for countermeasures are discussed.Constructivistic curriculum which utilized the telecomputing in a special education is proposed in this study and the its effectiveness is discussed.
