Books by Roger C. Schank

A discussion of education, written by Roger C. Schank.

This volume describes the progress being made at The Institute for the Learning Sciences using computers to provide motivating environments for learning. The text documents the authors' work from the cognitive psychology which underlies it.

In the author's words: "This book is an honest attempt to understand what it means to be educated in today's world." Schank's argues that no matter how important science and technology are, as a society we believe that those educated in literature, history and other humanities are more worthy of the descriptor "well educated."

First published in 1977. Routledge is an imprint of Taylor & Francis, an informa company.
