Description
A teacher oversees four elementary school children who are learning the Three R's with the assistance of an IBM computer at the Los Nietos School District in Whittier. Under a specifically funded program, the children are provided with typewriter-like terminals that enable them to communicate directly with an IBm computer to learn and practice reading, writing and arithmetic skills. The computer instructs and converses at a level and pace geared to each individual child's ability to learn and has proved an effective adjunct to regular classroom instruction in helping students who face cultural and language differences. Photo dated: January 26, 1976.
