The goal of the research and development project described is to make it possible for students in grades K-8 to acquire at least minimal computer-related skills. The report gives the long range goals of the project, perceptions on the need for a computer literacy program, recommendations of approaches for satisfying that need, and the pros and cons of a K-8 infusion approach to computer literacy. A series of curriculum guides for the K-8 computer literacy program for use by school administrators, media center people, teachers for grades K-8, and subject coordinators will be produced before the termination of the project, scheduled for September 1983.
