Cheng <WALLACE.DCHENG@MIT-XX.ARPA> Subject: Use of micros in universities [request for information] To: arpanet-bboards@MIT-MC.ARPA ReSent-date: 13 May 1985 19:10:16 EDT ReSent-from: Arpanet-BBoards-Request at MIT-MC I am collecting information about the growing use of microcomputers at the university level for course use. Specifically, how do students in non-technical courses (e.g. business, medicine, law, humanities ...) react to the integration of micros into their curriculum? Moreover, what are the attitudes of university officials? Are they just making computing power available to those who desire it, or are they reshaping the actual courses to take full advantage of the technology available? If you have any information or pointers to people I should talk to, please send mail (WALLACE.DCHENG at MIT-XX) or call (617)863-5100. Thanks in advance. (I will send a summary of my findings to anyone who requests it). Dan.
