Abstract

Because of the restructuring of the health education and services there was a
severe shortage of manpower and teachers who were competent in using and/or
teaching of computers and information technology. This was the first emperical
study explicitly focusing on instructional strategies to influence learners'
emotions; focusing on fear, envy, anxiety, sympathy, and pleasure, to teach
basic computer skills to the vocational school teachers to a level which they can
also teach basic computer skills to their students. A total of 48 (65% of 75)
teachers from the study group started to teach basic computer skills to their
students in addition to their normal teaching duties when they returned to their
previous posts.
