This paper reports on the development and testing of a scheduling system for computer-managed instruction. Simulation results showed how the system would perform with various resource levels, student loads, and entrance frequencies. (Author/IRT)

Computer systems comprised of a central computer, terminal, software programs, and a communication channel are being placed in charge of thousands of students for individualized instruction in various subject areas. The most prevalent uses of the computer as a teaching instrument include (1) drill and practice, (2) tutorial, (3) dialogue, and (4)…

In the training of maintenance and operations technicians, three enhancements to a basic, straightforward, fixed-sequence simulation system can be useful. The primary advantage of the resultant system is that the principal object of simulation is the task to be performed, which includes both the planning knowledge and the equipment actions…
