Clausing, Stephen – CALICO Journal, 1987
Outlines the design considerations that go into making an authoring system. Uses examples from the author's system, "Private Tutor," to illustrate. Emphasis is on the concepts that define the operation of the authoring system. Also discusses design principles of "Private Tutor" in relation to the Macintosh computer. (Author/LMO)

England, Elaine – CALICO Journal, 1984
Suggests that insights from other disciplines be considered when evaluating computer-assisted language instruction materials. Issues which need to be considered when evaluating these materials include: design issues, user-machine interfacing, support documentation, screen layout, color and animation, and restricted visual display capacity. (SED)

Curtis, Ronald; Najarian, John P. – 2000
When competing with mass media and other forms of information delivery, a verbal lecture does not have enough sensory impression. What students read in a passive framework is barely remembered, less so in pre-examination cramming. Weaker students have difficulties in reading, most notably with abstract and mathematical concepts. These problems are…
