The computer is one of the tools which is characterized by technological use in the teaching and learning process. The use of computer in the field of the teaching process goes back to 1950 when initiatives were considered by a number 0f educational establishments in U.S.A , Britain , France and Japan in teaching pure science subjects and also in the process of distance learning as well as e-Learning. Also compact disk and portable computers were used by teachers and students in printing and storing lectures or in updating them for reference whenever it is needed. Besides compact disks were used in preparing and designing programs required by curricular. In the light of what was mentioned above one can limit the role of computer in the teaching and learning process as follows: -collection and preservation items of curriculum materials and also updating them for reference whenever the need arises. -to enable the student and the teacher to exchange curriculum, reports and research between educational institutions within the country or abroad. -facilitates correction of examination papers especially in the field of pure science exclusively the questions that are answered by"True"or"False" or multiple choices. - to develop skills of the teachers and students in the field of scientific research especially what is concerned to indentifying the problem of the research and review of literature. It is our aim to elaborate in this monograph how and to what extent computer can aid teaching and learning process with emphasis on its role in distance learning and e-learning .The coverage of this objective called for review of the previous studies related to the role of computer in teaching and learning process. We refer to the results and conclusions of these studies through our discussion of the related subject in this monograph. The monograph ends with a number of results which point out that the computer gives teachers confidence in the classroom as they are not looked down by their students as obsolete and old fashion. Besides , the results reveal computer has a notable role in e-learning and distance learning which aim to acquisition of knowledge and skills through mediated instruction. Also it helps teachers to organize and deliver their course materials to their students. | ||
