An Experimental Study on the Construction of Intelligent Micro-computer Assisted Learning System and Development of Effective Instructional Programs for Handicapped Children

本研究的目的有二。第一，建构智能型电脑辅助教学系统，以促进残障儿童在学校的有效学习。第二，开发适当的教学计算机程序，作为计算机辅助教学系统的软件，其中央处理部分完全由微型计算机组成。本研究中使用的受试者限于四类。也就是说，部分失明，听力受损，智力迟钝和情绪失常。本实验研究的部分结果如下。应用计算机文字处理器对弱视学生进行阅读，取得了良好的效果。本文介绍了一种新研制的“腭图”系统，它由微型计算机控制，对听障儿童的言语训练有较好的效果。研究结果显示，在小学及初中阶段，轻度弱智学童对磁碟（Floppy Disk）所载的概念学习电脑程式，往往有兴趣。尽管判断出做出明确结论是有风险的。微型电脑辅助教学系统似乎是一个友好的学习工具，即使是自闭症儿童在他们的数学和语言训练。

The purpose of this study is towfold. First, to construct intelligent CAI(Computer Assisted Instruction) system for effective learning of handicapped children in schools. Second, to develope appropriate instructional computer programs as software for the CAI system, central processing part of which is exclusively consisted of micro-computer. The subjects employed in this study were limited to four categories. i.e., partially sighted, hearing imapired, mentally retarded and emotionally disturbed. Some of the results of present experimental reserch are as follows. Good results were yielded when computerlized word processer was applied for reading of partially sightd pupils. Newly developped "Palato-gram" system run by micro-computer proved to be effective for speech training of hearing impaired children. It is indicated that computer programs for concept learning listed in FD(Floppy Disk) often attract interests of mildly mentally handicapped pupils at elementaly and lower secondary levels. Though it is judged to be risky to make a clear conclusion. micro-computer assisted instruction system appears to be friendly learning tool even for autistic children in their mathematical and language drills.
