Describes a competency-based, computer-managed instruction model that was developed and used in revising and managing the curricula of dietetic internship and physical therapy certificate programs. Results indicate that this approach to curriculum development is desirable and practical and has the potential for effectively serving future…

Considers the design and production of a computer assisted learning (CAL) or computer managed learning (CML) package from the point of view of a programer assisting the teacher who is willing to use it. The stages of production are illustrated by reference to two case studies. (Author/CMV)

The purpose of this investigation was to empirically demonstrate and evaluate a brassboard for computerized collective training for teams (COLT2). The underlying tasks were to (1) conduct a state of the art assessment of instructional strategies appropriate for COLT2, (2) derive a conceptual framework for COLT2 instructional strategies, (3)…
