Amini, Minoo S. – Journal of Education for Business, 1995
Instruction in computer-based business communication is vital to prepare students for the current environment. Course design should include hands-on training using electronic messaging, a simulated environment in which to practice networking, and encouragement of teams and collaboration among students. (SK)

Gordon, Jack – Training, 1997
As the focus shifts to learning in the workplace, emphasis is being placed on "infonuggets," chunking, or granularization: delivery of bits of training and information as needed on the job. Some delivery methods include electronic performance support systems, the Internet, and computer simulation. (SK)

Macleod, Ian A.; And Others – Information Processing and Management, 1987
Discussion of the need for distributed information retrieval systems focuses on a model system, Fulcrum FUL/Text. Differences from distributed database management systems are described; system design is discussed; implementation requirements are explained including remote operation calls (ROC's); and a prototype simulation model based on FUL/Text…

Genet, Russell M. – 1988
This report consists of several papers written, but not published, during the course of the WARNET study of requirements for a network of relatively low-cost, interconnected combat simulators for use in training pilots for combat readiness. It is projected that such a network would allow a number of aircraft to fight each other in simulated but…

Stoloff, David L. – 1992
This overview of the use of educational technology in peace education discusses three questions: (1) how educational technology may be applied to increase world understanding and reduce intergroup tensions; (2) what strategies, within what contexts, have proven effective in integrating the study of peace across the curriculum; and (3) how…
