Information Technology and the Social Studies.
Searles, John E.
Social Education, v47 n5 p335-37 May 1983
The information revolution is making various impacts on social studies. Students are children of this age and are learning social ideas from technology. The information revolution should be part of the social studies curriculum. Unresolved questions (e.g., Who should write computer software?) and some thoughts on the future are discussed. (RM)
