Abstract/Summary

A system for the purpose of assisting the teacher in evaluating class comprehension by monitoring their individual and/or collective responses to multiple-choice questions still does not exist in De La Salle University. Such a system, the Experimental Electronic Real-Time Teacher-Student Feedback System: Cybernetic Classroom, is described and its capabilities are compared with those of other systems developed elsewhere. Cyber Teach is a special-purpose multi-terminal PC-based analog and digital system which provides a considerable amount of real-time display information to both the teacher and class. Some of the benefits associated with such a system are discussed. It was proposed that one of the Graduate School of Business and Economics (GSBE) case rooms be converted into a cybernetic classroom. This project was conceived by Mr. Benito Teehankee, Dean of Student Affairs in consultation with Mr. Jose Antonio Catalan of the Electronics and Communications Department and Benedict Avila of IMPACT Center. The project aims to take advantage of advances in instructional technology and educational research by departing from the usual chalk-and-talk method. It also allows quick feedback (to both teacher and class) and efficient teacher control of the instructor process.
