Political Science as Training for the Information Age.
Daniel, Christopher
Political Science Teacher, v3 n4 p1-3,5 Fall 1990
Examines proposals to computerize the political science curricula. Maintains that technological changes can support mainstream political science education, and provides criteria to determine whether microcomputers should be introduced. Questions whether fundamental abilities are improved by technology, and warns students may believe outcomes will follow predictable patterns by oversimplified simulations based on computer output.
