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.
