The Modern Land of Laputa: Where Computers Are Used in Education.
Morton, Chris
Phi Delta Kappan, v77 n6 p416-19 Feb 1996

School computer systems should be viewed as structured learning environments with complex, comprehensive capabilities to access and manipulate information. Computer environments can support changes in educational structures, instructional processes, and the development of lifelong-learning opportunities. (MLH)
