Part of a larger effort in creating a computer-based European Documentation and Information System for Education (EUDISED), the present document contains four papers proposing specifications for procedures and formats to be incorporated in the documentation standards of EUSIDED. The first is a "Preliminary Study for the Design of a Coding…

An illustration of modestly-interactive instruction of moderate length--to be administered to six students who start off together--is presented. Implications for IDCMS regarding number of audio programs and video files and extent of looping are preliminarily deduced on the basis of characteristics of the illustrative instructional program.…

A construct of psychoneurological efficiency provides the guiding framework for developing early identification procedures and compensatory training for Head Start children whose inefficient information processing skills interfere with their cognitive development. Psychoneurological efficiency is the ability to process information through the body…
