Complex Problem: “Should schools adopt computer-assisted education for young
children?”

Article 1: Psychology (Learning Theory).
The National Research Council (NRC) is the research arm of the National Academy
of Sciences, a private, nonprofit scholarly society that advises the federal
government in scientific and technical matters. Its study “How People Learn: Brain,
Mind, Experience, and School” argues that computer-assisted education can
enhance learning (Bradsford, Brown, & Cocking, 1999). The supportive evidence
used by the NRC includes references to state-of-the art learning software and
several experimental projects such as GLOBE, which gathered data from students
in over 2,000 schools in 34 countries (Bradsford et al., 1999).

Article 2: Education.
The Alliance for Childhood, a partnership of individuals and organizations, issued a
report, “Fool’s Gold: A Critical Look at Computers in Childhood”, that subsequently appeared in a leading education journal. The report argues that
computer assisted education does not benefit young children. This view, a matter of
heated debate within the profession, was nevertheless included in the Education
Department’s own 1999 study of nine troubled schools in high poverty areas, as well
as extensive references to studies by leading education experts, including Stanford
Professor (Education) Larry Cuban, theorist John Dewey, Austrian innovator
Rudolf Steiner, and MIT Professor Sherry Turkel (Alliance for Childhood, 1999).
