Microcomputer feedback in communication training

摘要

Several microcomputer applications regarding instructional feedback in communication training are described in this report. Microcomputer technology is shown to be advantageous in the delivery of immediate, simultaneous and delayed instructional comments in traditional performance courses. Computerized speech criticism, the ComET system and the coding of videotaped performances are shown to be computer‐based enhancements of more traditional feedback delivery systems. The linking of video and computer technology to provide interactive simulations is discussed. Options for future communication scholars including computer‐based audience response systems and “video robots” are presented.
