Extract

This paper describes ways in which computers can be used to help teach elementary college economics. Most of the methods can be implemented with present-day equipment; the rest will prove feasible within a few years. Examples given here are not intended to provide a full or even a representative menu for a beginning course; they simply illustrate some of the more interesting possibilities.
