Product Description
It is hard to find a proposal for improving American education that does not include plans for the widespread use of computers. Yet concerns abound that the benefits will lag behind until the teachers who guide the students have a better understanding of their use. Anne Meyer and David Rose provide a thoughtful book that will help educate teachers in the theories and uses of computers for the teaching of reading. It presents rich knowledge both about computers and about the process of learning to read, relating computers to theories of the brain and to the teaching of reading skills and strategies. Also covered is the variety of computer software available for teaching reading at various levels for students who make normal progress as well as for those who experience problems. This presentation offers an exciting view of the future use of computers in reading instruction.

About the Author
As a founder and co-executive director of CAST (Center for Applied Special Technology), Anne Meyer, Ed.D., has played a key role in the design of CAST's multimedia technology. Dr. Meyer draws upon her long-term interest in psychological aspects of learning and learning disability to explore ways to use computers to build competence and self-esteem. She brings interdisciplinary training in education, clinical psychology, and graphic design to her work at CAST. Currently Dr. Meyer is focusing on refining and disseminating CAST's ideas about universal design for learning through writing and Web site development.

After earning her undergraduate degree from Radcliffe College, Dr. Meyer received her master's degree and doctorate from the Harvard Graduate School of Education. She is also a licensed clinical psychologist.

In 1984, David H. Rose, Ed.D., helped to found CAST (Center for Applied Special Technology) in order to expand opportunities for students with disabilities through the innovative development and application of technology. Dr. Rose specializes in developmental neuropsychology and in the universal design of learning technologies. In addition to his role as co-executive director of CAST, Dr. Rose lectures at Harvard Graduate School of Education where he applies CAST's work in neural networks and learning to both the design and the content of his course.

Dr. Rose completed his undergraduate work at Harvard University. He received his master's degree from Reed College and his doctorate from the Harvard Graduate School of Education.

To further CAST's mission, Dr. Rose presents at national conferences on universal design, learning, and technology, and serves as a member of several public policy initiatives to promote the adoption and dissemination of CAST's principles of universal design.
