Integration of computers into education : [an honors thesis (HONRS 499)]

The computer is making its way into our educational system today. Being sure that it gets started on the right foot should be a major concern for the educators involved. Many decisions must be made concerning hardware and software purchases, curriculum development, teacher training, and integration of the computer into the classroom. This paper intends to study briefly the administrative decisions involved in the integration of computers into education, to look at the variety of software programs presently available, and to explore some future educational expectations of the computer.
