A series of experiments to discover the optimal learning situation were conducted using computer-assisted instruction based on a mathematical model. The instructional systems were adaptive in that the sequence of instruction varied according to a given student's performance history, and the program was organized to modify itself automatically as…

The most recent work of the Computer Applications Laboratory (CAL) is summarized in this report. CAL conducts research in the area in which fundamental learning processes, topical education tasks, and technology intersect, seeks to meet the challenge of societal/educational problems, designs prototype courses using multimedia, computer-controlled…
