ABSTRACT
Two years ago the term "mainline instruction" was introduced as a referent to a carefully designed, total instructional system to replace complete courses with a far less labor-intensive mixture of men and machines. This mode was contrasted with the adjunctive use of the computer by faculty members who are happy to work within the system and merely want to use the computer to improve their instruction. The two NSF-sponsored conferences on Computers in the Undergraduate Curriculum have illustrated and stimulated the adjunctive approach.

Intelligent CAI: The role of the curriculum in suggesting computational models of reasoning
ACM '77: Proceedings of the 1977 annual conferenceComputer-assisted instruction (CAI) offers many opportunities for the application of artificial intelligence (AI) techniques. One advantage of doing AI research within the CAI paradigm is that the curriculum provides a ready framework for the evaluation ...
CAI - multimedia approach to farm tractor and machinery safety certification
Research was conducted at Purdue University with the primary goal to compare a newly developed self-instructional CAI/multimedia computer program with traditional instructional methods for use by youth enrolled in a farm tractor and machinery safety ...
