The computer has a number of advantages over normal classwork. It
offers privacy, which relieves learners from the fear of being ridiculed
for their mistakes by their classmates. It allows learners to work on
their own, in their own time and, most importantly, at their own pace.
This is valuable not only for those who have fallen behind and need to
catch up with the rest of the class, but also for learners who always
finish early and need extra materials to stretch them. The computer
is patient and will tirelessly go over the same points for as long as
is necessary. Finally the computer is consistent, unbiased, and has no
"off days".
To teachers the computer offers the opportunity to make better use
of their time and skills. By taking over dull mechanical tasks like the
correcting and marking of simple exercises, it allows them to spend more
on preparation and on activities such as discussion, simulation,
or project work. By providing a means of usefully occupying part of the
class, it opens up the possibility of small group activities. Lastly,
through its record-keeping facilities, it gives teachers access to
detailed information on their pupils’ strengths, weaknesses, and
progress, which not only helps them to assess individual learners, but
also enables (8)them to evaluate the materials and methods they have been
using.
