The Specification and Design of Educational Microcomputer Systems.
Thorne, M. P.
British Journal of Educational Technology, v11 n3 p178-84 Oct 1980

As a consequence, the educational potential of microcomputer peripherals has not been carefully considered. Research is urgently needed in this area so that decisions are made on strong educational and technical grounds. (Author/LLS)
