Abstract
A course for educators introducing the potential of the computer as a tool of instruction is described. The course is divided into five parts: 1) computer literacy, 2) motivation, 3) learning experiences, 4) reinforcement, and 5) evaluation. Each of the educators in the course receives credit by undertaking a project in his own area of interest and presenting it to the class. The course has been successful in improving the attitudes of the participating educators towards the potential of the computer as a tool of instruction.Keywords
