An intelligent classroom has been put into
use for information systems instruction. It
features 35 student workstations in a
networked, multi-media classroom with
interactive, application and activity control
software. Capabilities of the intelligent
classroom are reviewed, modes of instruction
and their marginal cost are described, and a
comprehensive cost effectiveness assessment
methodology for this learning/teaching
configuration is discussed. Preliminary
assessment results are quite encouraging.
Should the full evaluation bear out the
preliminary results, then a quantum jump in
educational effectiveness will have been
demonstrated. This should act as a catalyst
for nationwide implementation of the
intelligent classroo
