Computers in Science Education: Can They Go Far Enough? Have We Gone Too Far?
Schrock, John Richard
American Biology Teacher, v46 n5 p252-56 May 1984
Indicates that although computers may churn out creative research, science is still dependent on science education, and that science education consists of increasing human experience. Also considers uses and misuses of computers in the science classroom, examining Edgar Dale's "cone of experience" related to laboratory computer and "extended laboratory" activities. (JN)
