Version 3 of the Southwest Regional Laboratory's (SWRL) Instructional Management System (IMS) is a fully automated system which accepts pupil criterion exercises from remote sites and returns various reports to the same location. This paper briefly describes the SWRL/IMS system design and functional characteristics. The instructional system requisites and longer-range development objectives related to IMS functions are summarized, and examples of criterion exercises, system reports, and input forms are provided. A flowchart of the data collection, concentration, and information generation process is also included. (Author/DGC)
