Dear Colleagues,

     Today I received from Elsevier a special issue of the Journal of
Instructional Science on the theme of "AI and Education".  This double-

preliminary collection of articles prepared for the Second International
Conference on AI and Education held at Exeter University in September
1985.  The issue is Volume 14, Nos. 3 and 4, dated May, 1986. A more
comprehensive book on the theme will be forthcoming at the end of 1986.
