A Dallas County consortium study investigated use of the Control Data Basic Skills Learning System (computer-based education) as a means for providing a comprehensive, high quality program of individualized instruction in reading, mathematics, and language arts. It also examined issues related to the motivation of students whose training was…

These materials were designed to be used by life science students for instruction in the application of physical theory to ecosystem operation. Most modules contain computer programs which are built around a particular application of a physical process. This report describes concepts presented in another module called "The First Law of…

These materials were designed to be used by life science students for instruction in the application of physical theory to ecosystem operation. Most modules contain computer programs which are built around a particular application of a physical process. This module and a comparison module are concerned with elementary concepts of thermodynamics as…

These materials were designed to be used by life science students for instruction in the application of physical theory to ecosystem operation. Most modules contain computer programs which are built around a particular application of a physical process. This module describes the application of irreversible thermodynamics to biology. It begins with…

Three different aspects of the post-affluent age are largely concerned with economic, societal, and technological issues. It is questionable whether the skills needed to cope in this era will be acquired within the schoolhouse and the classroom or outside the traditional delivery systems of education. New partnerships with external agencies,…

This is the final report of a research project. The goal of the project was to record a large collection of mathematical performances by students and to develop a system for analyzing these performances. The subjects observed included students in grades 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, and 9 and three adult groups. Four specific results are reported: (1) a large…

Trainee development, TRAINER programs, and dissemination strategies are treated in this summary of the TRAINER computer assisted learning program for scientists and other professionals who wish to do literature searches using online services. A discussion of TRAINER's rationale, design, constraints, and differing institutional implementations…

This manual for supervisory instructors documents the goals, methods, and operation of the BASIC Instructional Program (BIP), an interactive problem-solving laboratory that teaches elementary programming in the BASIC language. The first two sections describe features of BIP that may be of interest to the supervisor, especially the individualized…

This collection of conference presentations includes 23 papers on a variety of topics pertaining to the use of computer in New Zealand. Among the topics discussed are computer science techniques in a commercial data processing situation, data processing personnel and their careers, the communication aspects of an airline system, implementation of…

The first of three volumes of papers presented at the 1979 ADCIS convention, this collection includes most of the 30 papers presented at the general session and 34 project reports. The general session opened with seven papers on various aspects of videodisc technology and five papers describing phases in the life of CBE sites. The remaining…

Although computers and high-powered mass media will eventually open new vistas in education, their immediate value is overrated, and the less glamouous visual learning media are the ones that teachers and students use most often. Today the most important visual media are filmstrips, slides, overhead projectuals, 16mm films, and 8mm silent or sound…

A colloquium, held by the New England Education Data Systems (NEEDS), resulted in five papers which explore some underdeveloped aspects of computer use in education. Gifted children are sometimes described as having an awareness of the learning process itself. Computers, with their capability to do multivariate analysis and simulate environments,…

This project's main objective in developing and implementing a computer-assisted instruction laboratory program in mathematics and initial reading was to individualize instruction so that each child could progress at his own pace through a subset of materials best suited to his aptitudes and abilities. This theory of instruction attempts to…

A collection of 332 abstracts, resumes, and annotations of selected documents on audiovisual theory and methods, aids, facilities, and equipment, this publication is the fourth part of a bibliography on training methodology within a larger series on mental health inservice training and training methodology. Television instruction and equipment,…
