Rogers, Donald D.; Weinstein, Claire – 1974
A description is provided of the format used to estimate the costs associated with the development and operation of a computer-managed instructional system. Total costs are conceptualized as a function of the number of hours devoted to each stage of the project and the cost per hour. The data management systems which were developed required…
