Title: Why Has CAI Not Been More Successful in Economic Education: A Note
Abstract: The authors question the somewhat negative judgment about computers reached by Siegfried and Fels in their article, "Teaching College Economics: A Survey" (Journal of Economic Literature, September 1979). They observe that there are a host of research questions in need of answers before economists reject the generally positive picture across many other disciplines of the efficacy of computer-related instruction.
