This bibliography, the first one to be generated by the computer system of the Linguistics Documentation Centre, lists books and articles through 1972. Entries are not annotated, but additional descriptors are noted for many publications. Many entries are recorded as being abstracted and indexed in the ERIC system, and for these ERIC reference…

Initiated in the mid-sixties under Title I of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, the Uniform Migrant Student Record Transfer System (UMSRTS) was designed to maintain ready accessibility via computer data base to the health and academic records of migrant children. The National Committee on the Education of Migrant Children (NCEMC)…

An automated project for converting a library collection from Dewey Decimal to Library of Congress classification was compared with a manual reclassification project. The Joint University Libraries (JUL) of Vanderbilt University, George Peabody College for Teachers, and Scarrit College served as an example of manual reclassification. The JUL…

Two educational computer simulations are described in this paper. One of the simulations is STATSIM, a series of exercises applicable to statistical instruction. The content of the other simulation is comprised of mathematical learning models. Student involvement, the interactive nature of the simulations, and terminal display of materials are…

Efforts of Soviet educators to identify and develop mathematics talent through the establishment of secondary schools offering specialization in computer programing and mathematics are reported. The following programs are described: organization and results of the experimental class which began in September 1959 to offer a specialization in…

The blending of technology with teaching has permitted the introduction of individualized instruction for the total student body at Marshall High School, Portland, Oregon. In conjunction with the School of Education at Stanford University, a computerized modular-flexible schedule was made operational and put to use in September 1963. Prior to…

Proceedings of a conference on the present and future uses of computer techniques in the air conditioning field. The recommendation of this report is, for the most part, negative insofar as it applies to the use of computers for design by the small office. However, there should be an awareness of their usefulness in controlling the environmental…

The Banff Regional Conference is intended for superintendents and trustees of medium-sized urban school districts in Canada's four western provinces. Some of the applications and limitations of electronic data processing were discussed at the 1968 conference. The following topics were covered in presentations: (1) A basic introduction to the…

A recent study was conducted at Stanford University to determine the degree of correspondence between phonemes and graphemes in English. In past attempts to achieve universal literacy, language reformers have proposed a revised alphabet of one grapheme for each phoneme, a change which anti-reformers have insisted would be costly. Modern linguists,…

With the computer and the environments it makes possible, the author feels, we are on the threshold of being able to coalesce the study of learning and the prescription of instruction. To accomplish this, however, man must change his egocentric views concerning the value of traditional education. In the future, he predicts, an interdisciplinary…

The lecture notes of two courses in Systems Programing, given by Professor Niklaus Wirth in 1965 and 1966 at Stanford University, are reproduced. Overall subjects covered with the theme of general systems programing include: assemblers, interpreters, input-output programing, supervisory programs (monitors), an introduction to compilers, phrase…

This report is a detailed description of the Harvard CAI Laboratory, including its history, organization, functions, staffing, programs and support. Discussed are materials relating to CAI in general, such as psychological research, modes of instruction, advantages and implementation of CAI. Reviewed also are specific projects of this facility. A…

Although computer applications in the commercial and scientific realms have expanded tremendously, only a small number of the computers in the public schools are utilized for instructional purposes, and an even smaller number are capable of CAI applications. The terminal objective of Project REFLECT is the design of a model plan which could be…

Although computers have potential applications in the elementary and secondary physical education curriculum, current usage is minimal when compared to other disciplines. However, present trends indicate a substantial growth in the use of the computer in a supportive role in assisting the teacher in the management of instructional activities.…

A survey of computer use was conducted in 1974 in a small, nonrandom sample of Massachusetts colleges and universities. Allowing for inflation, but adjusting for the increase in computer power per dollar, it is clear that significantly more computer power is being devoted to instruction--both "with" and "about" the computer.…
