Peer reviewedRagan, Lawrence C. – Journal of Computing in Higher Education, 1991
In cooperation with a university educational technology unit, an agronomy professor used hypercard and videodisk technology to develop a computer program for identification of 181 weed species based on user-selected characteristics. This solution was found during a search for a way to organize course content in a concise, manageable system. (MSE)

Peer reviewedOwens, Peter – Journal of Computing in Higher Education, 1992
Advances in multimedia and video technology have made more sophistication in educational software almost necessary, requiring complex team authorship and production considerations. Colleges and schools can be active in software development and perhaps keep software production down to earth. The transition will be expensive and require many and…

Peer reviewedGibbs, William J.; Shapiro, Arnold F. – Journal of Computing in Higher Education, 1994
A system to monitor student reactions to what is occurring on a computer screen is described. The system produces a split-screen image of the computer screen and the student's physical (facial and bodily) and verbal responses. It was developed to help improve an independent-study prototype for a finance course at Pennsylvania State University.…
