4. Contrasted with system software and middleware, which manage, and integrate computer’s capabilities, but typically do not directly apply them in the performance of tasks that benefit the user.
5. Applies power of a particular computing platform or system software to a particular purpose.Examples : Enterprise Software, Accounting Software, Office Suites, Graphic Software, and Media Players

8. Plato System (1960) and TICCIT (1969) were developed which pioneered the educational computer systems.
12. Users prior to 1975 were dependent upon university or government owned mainframe computers with timesharing, users after this shift could create and use software for computers in homes and schools, computers available for less than $2000.
13.
14. Multimedia graphics and sound were increasingly used in educational programs. CD-ROMs became the preferred method for content delivery.
15. With the spread of the internet in the second half of the 1990s, new methods of educational software delivery appeared.
16.
17. The design of educational software programmes for home use has been influenced strongly by computer gaming concepts – in other words, they are designed to be fun as well as educational.
18. Ergonomic hardware is fundamental for baby learning, where Tablet PCs and touchscreens are preferably used instead of keyboards and computer mice

21. The term's meaning and usage has expanded and can refer to the entire course and any additional material when used in reference an online or 'computer formatted' classroom.
22. Many companies are using the term to describe the entire "package" consisting of one 'class' or 'course' bundled together with the various lessons, tests, and other material needed.
23. The courseware itself can be in different formats, some are only available online such as html pages, while others can be downloaded in PDF files or other types of document files.
24.
25.
26. It allows students to complete tests and examinations using a computer, usually networked.
27. It is available in various delivery methods, the most popular being self-hosted software, online software and hand-held voting systems.
28. Moodleis an example of open-source software with an assessment component that is gaining popularity.
29.
30. The term describes educational software which is primarily about entertainment, but tends to educate as well and sells itself partly under the educational umbrella.
31.
32. They were joined in the reference software market by both startup companies and established software publishers, most notably Microsoft.
33.

35. The hardware and software is generally combined into a single product, such as a child laptop-lookalike. The laptop keyboard for younger children follows an alphabetic order and the qwerty order for the older ones.
36. The most well-known example are Leapfrog products. These include imaginatively designed hand-held consoles with a variety of pluggable educational game cartridges and bowok-like electronic devices into which a variety of electronic books can be loaded.
37.
38. Railroad management games such as Railroad Tycoon(1990–2003) and Rails Across America(2001) illuminate the history, engineering and economics of railroad management.

40. The history of such software is usefully summarized in the SCORM 2004 2nd edition Overview (section 1.3), unfortunately, however, without precise dates. In the years immediately following 2000, planners decided to switch toserver -based applications with a high degree of standardization
41. This means that educational software runs primarily on servers which may be hundreds or thousands of miles from the actual user. The user only receives tiny pieces of a learning module or test, fed over the internet one by one. The server software decides on what learning material to distribute, collects results and displays progress to teaching staff. Another way of expressing this change is to say that educational software morphed into an online educational service. US Governmental endorsements and approval systems ensured the rapid switch to the new way of managing and distributing learning material.
49. DRILL AND PRACTICE SCHOOL SOFTWARE Drill and practice software can be used in order to assist students in mastering their knowledge of the subject. For example, when studying the life of Jesus such software, using multiple choice questions, for instance, can help students to learn the subject better. Such applications can improve student’s knowledge of historical facts, vocabulary, or names of the Bible characters or places. So, drill and practice software is to be used to help students in memorizing facts concepts.
50. TUTORIAL SCHOOL SOFTWARE Tutorial software can become a great aid for the teacher in one’s preparation to the classes, as well as teaching. It can include such applications as, for example, Microsoft PowerPoint that can help a teacher to organize and effectively present the material. In addition, tutorial software can be used as a visual aid for learning the material – perception of information in several different forms will improve understanding, comprehension and learning.
51. EDUCATIONAL SOFTWARE FOR GRADING AND ASSESSMENT The main purpose of assessment software is to help the teacher in monitoring students’ progress in the class. It will be especially helpful in scoring and interpreting the results of standardized tests. Since this type of applications performs the above mentioned function, it will be saving the teacher’s time.
52. ADMINISTRATION SOFTWARE FOR SCHOOL COMPUTERS Administrative software helps to create tests and administer the workflow of the class. Since planning is an integral part of the teaching process, this type of computer applications will be helping the teacher to organize and oversee the teaching process.
53. SCHOOL CMI COMPUTER APPLICATIONS Finally, computer-managed instruction (CMI) applications can also be used by a high school teacher. Furthermore, since such programs usually perform many functions, one can replace some of the above mentioned pieces of software. One CMI application can, for example, be used for creating drills and tests, for managing students’ performance, as well as for organizing the teacher’s work.
54. To sum up, it looks like these days computers can become a great aid for both students and teachers. Since computers are present in most aspects of our lives nowadays, and learning should be related to and based upon student’s lives and experiences, computers can, and even should, be used in classes whenever possible.
