This document discusses the advantages of using computers as tutors in education. It notes that computers can provide an individualized learning environment and allow students to learn at their own pace. Computers can also motivate learning through virtual environments, provide assistance and feedback, and evaluate student performance. The document also discusses how computer-assisted instruction (CAI) reinforces learning through repetitive drill and practice exercises. It provides examples of common drill and practice programs and how they immediately feedback answers. Finally, the document briefly introduces simulation software, which takes a constructivist approach through teaching strategies for real-life problems and allowing students to make decisions and experience the effects.

10. Today, educators accept the fact that the computer has indeed
succeeded in providing an individualized learning environment so
difficult for a teacher handling whole classes. This is so, since the
computer is able to allow individual students to learn at their own
pace, motivate learning through a challenging virtual learning
environment, assist students through information needed during the
learning process, evaluate student responses through immediate
feedback during the learning process, and also give the total score to
evaluate the student's total performance.

11. CAI computer learning should not stop with the drill and practice
activities of students. In effect, CAI works best in reinforcing learning
through repetitive exercises such that students can practice basic skills
or knowledge in various subject areas. Common types of drill and
practice programs include vocabulary building, math facts, basic science,
and history or geography facts. In these programs, the computer
presents a question/problem first and the student is asked to answer
the question/problem. Immediate feedback is given to the student's
answer. After a number of practice problems and at the end of the
exercise, the students get a summary of his overall performance.

14. Simulation software materials are another kind of
software that are constructivist in nature.
These simulation software:
• teaches strategies and rules applied to real-life
problems/ situations.
• asks students to make decision on models or
scenarios.
• allows students to manipulate elements of a
model and get the experience of the effects of
their decisions.
