10. NSTA Position Statement onThe Use of Computers in Science Education (1999)Just as computers play a central role in developing and applying scientific knowledge, they can also facilitate learning of science. It is therefore the position of the National Science Teachers Association that computers should have a major role in the teaching and learning of science. Computers have become an essential classroom tool for the acquisition, analysis, presentation, and communication of data in ways which allow students to become more active participants in research and learning. Tutorial and multimedia software should engage students in meaningful interactive dialogue and creatively employ graphics, sound, and simulations to promote acquisition of facts and skills, promote concept learning, and enhance understanding.
