Web Database Based Integrating Ware System

The application of computer plays an important role in education. CAI, as an important part of CAE and a new type of educational technology, is regarded as the fourth education revolution in human's education history following the appearance of characters, the founding of school and the invention of printing. With the development of educational reform and the advance of social information, it is essential to popularize CAI.The paper, based on the analysis of the concept of CAI, offers a systemic study of the social, theoretical and technological basis of CAI and meanwhile its development,current situation and problems. It is clearly pointed out in the paper that the inapplicability of those CAI software developed by commercial companyjthe difficulty with teachers' making software themself;the unsatisfactory development of CAI.which call for the reflection of those working on the research of CAI theory at primary and secondary level and those working on putting CAI into practice.CAI software,basically speaking, is a type of software providing assistance for teaching, which has its unique side.Based on its uniqueness and the analysis of its problems, the paper brings forwards WBIWS model; analyses the definition,structure .characteristics of integrating ware and the developing methods of CAI on integrating ware.Finally,the advanced ASP, HTML/DHTML,ADO technology are taken advantage of to design WBIWS and the developing platform of the system is used to produce integrating ware for computer hardware system.The characteristics of WBIWS are as follows:The analysis of integrating ware.Integrating ware is a detailed description of one project. WBIWS is able to solve the problems of granularity, format of integrating ware and paves the way to the actual realization of integrating ware system built on project.The application of web database.The application of web database in the management and searches of integrating ware and it's material overcomes the disadvantages that the traditional software is unchangeable, unreusable and inflexible and thus improves the efficiency of its use.The integrating ware based thoughts about developing teaching software.The modeling of integrating ware avoids developing software in repetition and the efficiency of developing teaching software is greatly enhanced.Through the analysis of the efficient operation of WBIWS and the examples of integrating ware,the paper hopes to contribute its efforts to the study on integrating ware, on the improvement of efficiency in developing and using integrating ware and on CAI as a whole.
