The development of a computer-assisted instruction package for the teaching of COBOL

Computer-Assisted Instruction (CAI) has been in the process of development for over ten years, but the actual usage of the method is still not yet very widespread.The author, however, proposes to use this method to teach COBOL to Business Administration students as an optional course at the College of Arts, Science and Technology in Jamaica and is therefore developing this package for her creative project.The package will require in excess of 4,000 man hours to complete. However, the author will do the necessary research and implement the framework of the software along with some lessons to demonstrate the techniques which will be used throughout the software. A supporting manual is also included in the design of the package.Ball State UniversityMuncie, IN 47306Thesis (M.S.)--Ball State University, 1984
