Software is another word for programs written in programming languages
Systems software is a software designed and developed to make computers function
Application software/programs are programs written to perform task such as word processing
Instructional software is applications software designed specifically to deliver or assist with student instruction on a topic
INSTRUCTIONAL SOFTWARE
LOGOTYPES OF INSTRUCTIONAL SOFTWARE
Students work example items and receive feedback on their correctness
Provides an entire instructional sequence similar to a teacher’s classroom instruction
Computerized models of real or imagined systems
Drill andPractice
Tutorial
Simulation
LOGOTYPES OF INSTRUCTIONAL SOFTWARE con’t
Activities designed to increase motivation by adding game rules and/or competition to learning activities
Fosters component skills in problem solving, provides practice in general approaches to problem solving, and gives opportunities to practice solving various problems
InstructionalGames
ProblemSolving
LOGOLEARNING THEORY CONNECTIONS
The first instructional software reflected the behavioral and cognitive learning theories:Directed – helps students acquire and retain information and skillsConstructivist – helps students explore topics and generate their own knowledge

ILS are systems that offer computer-based instruction and other resources to support instruction
ILS are provided through networked or online sources
ILS are the most expensive instructional software products
ILS were introduced in the 1970’s

USING INSTRUCTIONAL SOFTWARE TO MEET CLASSROOM NEEDS
LOGO
Word processing – programs that allow people to produce documents on a computer screen Benefits: saves time, improves appearance, allows easy exchange of work
Spreadsheets – programs designed to organize and manipulate numerical data Benefits: saves time, organizes info, increases motivation
Databases – programs that allow users to store, organize, and manipulate information Benefits: reduces data redundancy, saves time, allows comparisons of info, reveals data relationships
BASIC SOFTWARE TOOLS
LOGO
Word processing - creates handouts or other instructional materials, lesson plans and notes, reports, forms, letters to parents or students, flyers and newsletters
Spreadsheets – keeps club and classroom budgets, prepares performance checklists, creates grade books
Databases – keeps inventory and locates instructional resources, mines data for planning and reporting, utilizes students info to perform required tasks, sends personalized letters
PRODUCTIVITY APPLICATIONS FOR BASIC SOFTWARE TOOLS
LOGO
Word Processing – supports the learning of the writing processes
Spreadsheets – makes visual teaching demonstrations possible, supports mathematical functions, stores and analyze data, gives projections for grades
Databases – teaches research, study and organizational skills, poses and tests hypothesis
