Computer Education Plan K-12.
Bristol Public Schools, CT.
This district plan for a computer education program contains objectives for grades K-8, course descriptions for grades 9-12, descriptions of three special programs, and data related to computer inventories and budgets. Accompanying the K-8 objectives, which are listed separately for each grade level, are activities/procedures and methods of instructional delivery. The high school course descriptions include objectives, activities, and methods of instruction. The courses, primarily in the business and math departments, include computer survey, data processing, word processing, computer mathematics, and advanced computer programming. The special programs described are EPIC, a program for gifted students in grades 4-8 which incorporates individualized computer instruction; Computer Assisted Remediation Program (CARP) which provides remediation for high school students in mathematics, language arts, and reading; and the Guidance Information System (GIS) which offers occupational information for high school students. The data section lists current and projected inventories of microcomputers in all of the district's schools as well as budgetary information for 1982-1985 for materials and services necessary to support the computer education plan. A four-page glossary of computer terms is appended. (DC)
