Description and Table of Contents
Description
In this volume, the growing importance of computer use in educational organization and administration is examined from the two distinct perspectives of [1] how applications of informatics may impact on it, forcing it to change, and [2] how the educational system may deal with problems to effectively integrate information technology into learning. Contributions focus on educational organizations of students in the age range from about 11 to about 18 years. Developments of students in other age categories which provide relevant background to this focus have also been taken into account. Broad topics included are: societal and technological influences, relation between organization and education, educational infrastructure, economics of education, cooperation and coordination.
