Instructional applications for NeXT computers were developed by nine faculty members from the biology, mathematics and computer science, fine arts, chemistry, physics and astronomy, and geology departments as part of a grant awarded to the California State University at Los Angeles. These notes provide a schedule of events and reports from a 2-day…

A conference attended by 40 "students" and 20 "teachers" was held to explore the state of the art in computer-assisted instruction (CAI). The school was held in a remote Italian resort, but direct connections with computers in Italy and the United States were made to provide opportunities for demonstrations of existing systems.…
