Bair, James H. – 1974
The Augmented Human Intellect (AHI) system is a computer-based system designed to store, structure, and retrieve textual information in a way congruent with the characteristics of the individual. It provides for the hierarchical ordering of information and for the manipulation of text through a system of cross-referencing, modification, and…

Ahlgren, Alice E. – 1975
Costs and cost-related factors connected with providing on-line search services through the public library are examined. The examination was based on preliminary results from an on-going evaluation of an experimental program (DIALIB). In the DIALIB experiment Lockheed's DIALOG search service was available to the public through four public…

Cooper, Michael D.; DeWath, Nancy A. – 1975
A cost analysis was made of on-line bibliographic searching in four public libraries in the San Francisco Bay Area using the Lockheed DIALOG system. The study involved monitoring the time that 35 individuals in the libraries spent processing some 411 search requests. The study identified a set of seven tasks that are performed for each request and…

A union list of pre-1801 books in British libraries has long been needed, but its compilation has always fallen outside the capacities of existing manual systems. This report discusses an experimental project to devise, test, and evaluate techniques for the compilation of such a union catalog. To scale down the proposed catalog for the experiment,…

Bagley, Carole A.; Klassen, Daniel L. – Educational Technology, 1979
The introduction of computer assisted instruction (CAI) in correctional facilities in Minnesota is described. This experimental program indicated no increase in achievement or attitude attributable to CAI for the participants, but that computers are useful in motivating students, increasing their problem-solving skills, and providing repetitious…

Burke, Thomas Edward – 1969
A management education planning approach called Computer-Assisted Subject Area (CASA) has been conceptualized as a framework for viewing, evaluating, and recording efforts to improve the effectiveness of a subject area to be integrated within an overall curriculum. CASA is a generalized set of models which feature a hierarchy of activities in…

Atkinson, Richard C.; Suppes, Patrick – 1968
This project's main objective in developing and implementing a computer-assisted instruction laboratory program in mathematics and initial reading was to individualize instruction so that each child could progress at his own pace through a subset of materials best suited to his aptitudes and abilities. This theory of instruction attempts to…
