Abstract

Computers in the educational environment is not a new concept. Some schools in Zimbabwe have established computer laboratories in their schools, however, these computers are being used for computer literacy courses only and not for teaching purposes. This paper seeks to enlighten other educational practitioners that there is more that a computer can do for a teacher in the classroom. Robert Taylor's three modes of computer applications in the classroom (the tool, tutor, tutee) are discussed here.
