Developmental Changes in Micro-Educational Environments for Learning Handicapped and Non-Learning Handicapped Elementary School Students

Abstract
A longitudinal study of the development of Micro-Educational Environments (MEEs) and microcomputer use by learning handicapped and nonhandicapped students was initiated This report describes current MEEs and microcomputer-use patterns and changes in these programs and patterns over a 2-year period. Focus is on the differences in the types of microcomputer instruction provided to special and regular education students and their response to that instruction. The design and use of instructional programs once the novelty of the technology has worn off will be explored.
