An IBM spokesman discusses his corporation's view of the current and potential role of computers in education. (AK)

This article discusses computer-posed education problems, especially those that have to do with human reactions to the computer. (JA)

Describes different uses and impacts of the computer on campuses throughout America, including student and faculty use, research projects on student use, intercampus networks, and future plans. (DC)

Discusses the technical and economic developments in hardware and software that affect the language arts teacher. (AEA)

A non-European alphabet has hindered the introduction of computers into Japanese education, but that difficulty is now being overcome. A mathematics professor from that country discusses the progress that's being made in key areas and offers a plan for introducing computers into education on a large scale. (JN)

This paper discusses the effect that microelectronic technology will have on elementary education in the decades ahead, and some of the uses of computers as learning aids for young children, including interactive games, tutorial systems, creative activity, and simulation. (MP)

Discusses the effects which changes in computer technology are having on the organization, staffing, and budgets at institutions of higher education. Trends in computer hardware, computer software, and in office automation are also discussed. (JN)

A number of universities now require all students to have computers, charging additional tuition to cover costs of hardware, networking, and technical support. Despite frustrations of extensive computer systems and technological change, most feel the programs are worthwhile and address the limitations of campus computer labs. Laptops have become…

Some emerging patterns in educational computing permit speculation about future trends in educational computer hardware, software, and applications. Ultimately, three types of hardware units will be used by schools: professional systems, personal computers (microcomputers), and a new generation of inexpensive personal computers that can be…

In light of recent advances in the field of microcomputers and the general availability of inexpensive means of storing and transmitting information, this paper discusses the potential educational uses of computers and considers the role of computer technology and "technological literacy" in higher education. By way of example, the paper describes…

Evaluates influence of computer assisted instruction on engineering education, considering use of computers to remove burden of doing calculations and to provide interactive self-study programs of a tutorial/remedial nature. Cites universities requiring personal computer purchase, pointing out possibility for individualized design assignments.…

The use of computers in education and general society is continually expanding, but the growing need for highly educated computer technologists will continue unless universities take major steps toward the reallocation of their resources in favor of the burgeoning computer science departments, and government and industry provide a significant…

Designed to introduce social studies teachers to computers and to suggest ideas for their potential applications in social studies classrooms, this booklet is arranged in various sections. One section describes the origins of the modern computer, another defines computer terminology, and two sections explain computer hardware and computer…

This overview describes the development, current role, and implications of computers for computer assisted instruction (CAI), computer managed instruction (CMI), simulation, federally funded CAI systems, disciplinary network CAI systems, micro and mini-computer technology, cost effectiveness, future systems, user groups, computer science…

Three separate but related topics are discussed. These include the status of analytical chemistry in academia, the decline of science education in the United States (offering possible solutions to the problem), and the future of computers in analytical chemistry. (JN)
