A look at how a ninth grade science course at Dupont High School, Greenville, Delaware, utilized computer managed instruction to facilitate student self-pacing. (HB)

Describes a science program that operates by obtaining, testing and distributing copies of computer programs among its members. (LS)

Describes the operation of Computer-Based Education (C-BE) project at University of Texas for instruction in sciences and engineering. Offers an outline for use in transferring instructional materials to C-BE. (CP)

Proposes an enhanced approach to teaching topics in ecology--an approach that uses mathematical models and A Programming Language (APL) to produce short, quickly comprehensible computer "programs" that can be run to allow students to study the behavior of a particular model. (Author/IRT)

Computer assisted instruction is an excellent medium for humanizing the teaching-learning process not only by providing a patient, helpful, readily available source of information that is adaptable to the individual's needs, but also by freeing teachers to enable them to re-personalize the educational process. (Author/NHM)

Demonstrates the positive effect of a computer managed, individually prescribed learning program on the achievement of behaviorally disordered, delinquent adolescents. (RB)

This report presents a look at the present state of simulation/gaming in higher education, two briefs on successful uses of simulation games, and some "street corner" suggestions on how to introduce them into an institution. (Author)

The paper discusses factors contributing to the problem of preparing present and future teachers to accept and become skilled in the use of computers in the instructional process, and the obstacles to achieving a solution. (Author)

A British project in engineering science is described. Computer assisted instruction packages are being developed to provide students with experience with models or systems of models related to lecture material on electrical, electronic, nuclear, and mechanical engineering. (SD)

Article suggests several reasons for the successful use of computers to augment learning and offers some principles and procedures for catalyzing creativity in computer-related learning environments. (Author)

The Purdue Academic Learning Opportunity Systems (PALOS), a state-wide program based at Purdue University, was established to provide an administrative structure to enhance the education of Indiana adult residents. The PALOS Mathematics program was designed to increase mathematics achievement levels for selected Indiana populations. The initial…

A pilot project involved off-campus (distance education) students creating their assignments on Macintosh computers and "mailing" them electronically to a campus mainframe computer. The goal of the project was to determine what is necessary to implement and to evaluate the potential of computer communications for university-level…
