Kearsley, Greg P. – 1977
Cost estimates for Computer Assisted Instruction (CAI) depend crucially upon the particular assumptions made about the components of the system to be included in the costs, the expected lifetime of the system and courseware, and the anticipated student utilization of the system/courseware. The cost estimates of three currently operational systems…

Gerhold, George; And Others – 1978
This paper describes an effective microprocessor-based CAI system which has been repeatedly tested by a large number of students and edited accordingly. Tasks not suitable for microprocessor based systems (authoring, testing, and debugging) were handled on larger multi-terminal systems. This approach requires that the CAI language used on the…

Frick, Theodore; Su, Bude; An, Yun-Jo – TechTrends: Linking Research & Practice to Improve Learning, 2005
In May 1994, the first website for the School of Education at Indiana University Bloomington (IUB) was launched. At that time, the home page had two links: (1) The Instructional Systems Technology Department; and (2) The IUB home page. A decade later, the site now consists of more than 6,000 web pages, and has received more than 41.5 million page…

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…
