Abstract:

The purpose of the study was to design, tryout, and evaluate a system for maintaining attentive study of instructional materials. A CAI system was used for this purpose but, in contrast to most CAI efforts, existing materials were used and students spent minimal time in on-line contact with the computer. The report includes a manual of procedures for preparing test items which maintain attentive study, evaluation of the system, cost projections for use of the system, and a suggested extention of the system
