The potential role of the computer in intuition and self development
Pages 781 - 790
Abstract
From 1966--69, several colleagues and I had opportunity to design and implement a prototypical ISVD (Information System for Vocational Decisions). Dr. JoAnn Harris has been good enough to record that the ISVD and several sister computer guidance systems forecast and piloted the following advances in uniting the capabilities of computers and the purposes of guidance:
1. "Increased use of visuals to supplement words.
2. "Development of programs which will allow counselees to simulate vocational, educational, and personal-social experiences.
...
4. "Development of languages which allow the student to respond to the computer in his own language.
5. "Development of programs which will allow the counselee to prepare his own instructions to the computer and thus alter the pre-designed processes."
