Abstract:
Since 1992, CS5604 has been offered in a new format that synthesizes
educational and technological approaches oriented toward improvements
in motivation, comprehension, test performance, grades, study skills,
retention, and student satisfaction. The key features are discussed and
explained, including: modularity, personalization, testing of mastery,
tutoring, computer demonstrations, illustrative exercises, and use of
a digital library. All students should read this explanation
carefully, and follow all relevant instructions given in the DLPSI
and Timetable and Events sections.
