Three operations relevant to preparing a data base and supporting scripts are discussed in considerable detail. Section One enumerates the activities which constitute the collection and documentation of a data base. The material presented is relatively nontechnical and requires no knowledge of computers. Section Two discusses the preparation of…

Over the years, efforts have been made to work more efficiently with the ever increasing number of records and paper documents that cross workers' desks. Filing records on optical disk through electronic imaging is an alternative that many feel is the answer to successful document management. The pioneering efforts in electronic imaging in…

The Information System for Vocational Decision (ISVD) approach to computer-managed information is explained. Drawing mainly from the experience of preparing datafiles of occupational and military information for the ISVD, the author supports and elaborates on a number of general statements: (1) data should be collected and presented specifically…

Described is a complete and technical description of one component of the Information System for Vocational Decisions (ISVD) total data storage and access system. Both a verbal and a graphic flow chart of its functions within the system are presented. (TL)

Discusses the need to analyze and develop concepts of effective data handling when new systems projects are in their initial stages of development. For one such project -- TIES -- the author examines several of these concepts within the framework of the technical capability available and the need of the user. The developmental processes and the…

The report describes the Classroom Information and Computing Service (CLICS), a pedagogical computer-based information system that is used as a case study in the subject "Information Systems" in the Dept. of Electrical Engineering at M.I.T. CLICS is an abstraction of the Multiplexed Information and Computing Service (MULTICS) that is being…

Dual Coding Theory has quite specific predictions about how information in different media is stored, manipulated and recalled. Different combinations of media are expected to have significant effects upon the recall and retention of information. This obviously may have important consequences in the design of computer-based programs. The paper…

This paper summarizes the contents, structure and possible uses of the Information System for Vocational Decisions (ISVD) data file on military jobs in the 3 major services. In all, 170 specific career fields for enlisted men and 34 for officers are included in the data file, which also provides for converting the inquirer's personal…

Southwest Regional Laboratory IDCMS (Instructional Development Control and Monitoring System) will be a flexible hardware system for controlling and monitoring instruction and research in the laboratory setting. This paper seeks to introduce potential users to the system and software designers to representative challenges that system exploitation…

This report reviews and interprets activities carried out at the Center for Studies in Education and Development, Harvard Graduate School of Education, in support of the Information System for Vocational Decisions (ISVD) over a three year period. Included here are the contents, development, use so far, and potential of three specific datafiles…

The image generator function and author language software support for the CHARGE (Color Halftone Area Graphics Environment) Interactive Graphics System are described. Designed initially for use in computer-assisted instruction (CAI) systems, the CHARGE Interactive Graphics System can provide graphic displays for various applications including…

A workshop on the distribution and use of electronic aids in education was held at St. Donat, Quebec. Workshop members discussed the advantages of and obstacles to use of these aids and suggested ways by which their use could be increased. A frequent suggestion was to set up distribution boards at the national and regional level to facilitate…
