tremendous empha3is on research
in instruction recently." The
main reason, he said, was be

•Educational enrollments.
• Complexity of human knowl
edge.
• Cost of maintaining an insti

•Public pressure.
•Available money for research
projects.
The University's research in
"programmed learning," a form
of self-instruction, was the main
topic of the talks.

Though the Reader-Printer
can be used only with micro

early American and English
periodicals, several newspapers,
