International researchers discuss the use of information and communication technology (ICT) in all levels of education. Each of ten contributions connects a central question in cognitive science with specific educational practices. A sampling of topics includes the role of perceptual processes in learning, simulation learning environments as cognitive tools, and the use of ICT in the development of educators. The volume contains papers originally presented at a 2000 conference held at Lund U. in Stockholm, Sweden. Annotation ©2004 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
