A program called PROBLEM is detailed. It is a framework program built around a module structure that helps to make the development of computer-supervised drill much more manageable. It is viewed as an efficient approach in substantial areas of instruction in science and engineering. The material is entirely written in BASIC. (MP)

Describes a system in which the computer, by interacting with an information bank, produces an individual or group diagnostic profile specifying the nature of the factors that contribute to mathematics difficulties and student variability. The computer also generates suggestions for remediating the learning difficulties and accommodating student…

This report includes the framework, the experiences, the benefits, student attitude survey results, typical computer screen output, and BASIC program listings for PROBLEM, a general computer system for homework management in a time-sharing environment that can handle any exercise in which students must calculate numerical results from numerical…

Lists criteria for selecting quality computer software. Describes tutorial, drill and practice, test scoring, and simulations as innovative uses of microcomputers. Establishes a need for the use of computers and courseware as learning opportunities. Defines significant vocabulary terms and concepts to promote literacy. (RT)

Provides a behaviorist's approach to learning with the microcomputer. Considers the philosophy of dealing with computer learning including: drill and practice, using a word processor, problem solving, remedial work, simulations, tutorials, computer managed instruction, computer literacy, and inservice education.

Examined is a basic skills/remedial mathematics program at Medgar Evers College from 1978 to the present which uses computer assisted instruction and computer managed instruction. Described is the program and a systems approach. Investigated are the learner, instruction, and teacher parameters. (MVL)
