Ingersoll, Gary M.; Smith, Carl B. – Technological Horizons in Education, 1984
Reports results of a 1982/83 nationwide survey of administrators and teachers to determine the level of microcomputer use in elementary and secondary schools. Indicates that microcomputer availability and planned expenditures are increasing and that two-thirds of the nation's schools have at least one microcomputer in their facilities. (JN)

Harvard Univ., Cambridge, MA. Graduate School of Education. – 1981
This directory is a guide to schools with microcomputer programs. The selection of programs to be listed was accomplished by telephoning every ESEA Title IV-C director in the country to identify current or on-going IV-C projects in his/her state. If there were no existing IV-C efforts, minigrants for micros or Title IV-B activities were included.…

Becker, Henry Jay – Classroom Computer Learning, 1983
Summarizes findings of a survey school use of microcomputers. Results indicate that most schools have microcomputers, secondary schools are more likely than elementary schools to have them, and drill/practice and programing are major uses. Additional findings reported focus on time spent by student users, regular teacher users, and other areas.…

Thomas, Sheilah N. – 1983
Formal action by state education agencies (SEA's) in regard to educational technology is quite recent. In 1981 only seven states addressed the issue in formal state-level action. This paper presents the results of a 1983 survey on state-level initiatives relating to educational technology. The survey found that nearly all state SEA's are involved…
