New Paradigms for Computer Aids to Invention [electronic resource] / M. Diane Langston.
Many people are interested in computer aids to rhetorical invention and want to know how to evaluate an invention aid, what the criteria are for a good one, and how to assess the trade-offs involved in buying one product or another. The frame of reference for this evaluation is an "old paradigm...

| 520 | |a Many people are interested in computer aids to rhetorical invention and want to know how to evaluate an invention aid, what the criteria are for a good one, and how to assess the trade-offs involved in buying one product or another. The frame of reference for this evaluation is an "old paradigm," which treats the computer as if it were paper, but new paradigm aids should be based on the uniquely electronic strengths of computers. As more and more people use computers as a primary means of creating texts, electronic media are also changing how information is being created. Commercial software offers a potential source of new technological paradigms. For instance, the emphasis on the fluidity of information in electronic forms means that information is more malleable; parts of one electronic document can become parts of another. Other technological developments that may have promise for computer aids to invention are simulation, interactive videodiscs, advanced workstations such as the IBM PC RT and the software that runs on them, and interactive computer games. In terms of invention theory, new paradigms might be found Walter Ong's "secondary orality" and Herbert Simon's and others' work on artificial intelligence. This frame of reference should aid in creating the tools that are the promise of computer aids to rhetorical invention. (SRT) | ||
