Architects have devised a series of computer programs tailored to the planning and to the schematic design of community colleges. (Author)

A report on the computer time sharing developments at universities, particularly at Dartmouth College. Attempts to assess what value this kind of program would have in other locales. (AD)

Provides a framework for understanding responses to the organizational changes necessitated by the creation and growth of an electronic data processing division. (RA)

Describes one of the nation's first high school computer maintenance programs. (GB)

If the computer is to succeed as an educational tool, it is important that all of those involved in education are given the opportunity to use it freely and creatively. (Editor)

Outlines the automation process at the Library of Congress begun in 1961, noting problems encountered and future possibilities, and describing databases currently in use--SCORPIO, MUMS, MARC, COPICS AND COINS, ISIS, AND PAGING. (EJS)

The work described started in primary schools in three Welsh counties in September 1981. The project strove to: (1) evaluate currently available commercially produced software and (2) provide a practical introduction to computer use in junior and infant schools. The work involved approximately 2,000 students and 80 teachers. (MP)

The use of the Prolog programing language is promoted as the language to use by anyone teaching a course in relational databases. A short introduction to Prolog is followed by a series of examples of queries. Several references are noted for anyone wishing to gain a deeper understanding. (MP)

Physicians wishing to become computer literate face two immediate problems. First, there is no readily available nor universally accepted statement of what such literacy should entail, and second, such pedagogic mechanisms as exist are not widely available. This paper addresses both problems. (SSH)

Discusses the potential of microcomputers, indicating that, like an automobile, they can be used without knowing how they operate. Considers the microcomputer role in education, entertainment, telecommunications, and other areas such as artificial intelligence. (JN)

Discusses issues involved in the standardization of curriculum for high school computer science education, including the choice of programing language. The new Advanced Placement (AP) Program in Computer Science is also discussed, including its use of Pascal and the implications of introducing such a test at this time. (EAO)

Describes a computer activity (for Apple II) showing junior high students with some programing experience how to make words/letters in original programed poetry move on the computer screen (and gives practice using simple arrays, FOR..NEXT loops, and DATA statements). Includes the complete activity which can be duplicated for classroom use. (JN)
