Prof starts magazine
ion computer prog/paming\
CSUF professor Dan Isaacson knew
there was a market for his wares, so
last September he began publishing a
magazine in which he could display
them.
The bi-monthly publication,
Courseware Magazine, is designed to
teach pre-college students and teachers how to use computer programs, or
'software.*
Isaacson, who teaches a QM60
course, said that in the last few years
there has been a dramatic drop in the
price of computers, and thus an
instant increase in their usage. The
small, home-use model, which cost
$700-800 when it was first marketed,
is now priced at roughly $300, he said.

Computers will also be in widespread use throughout school systems, he said.
However, Isaacson said that very
few of today's teachers are equipped
with the skills necessary to make the
microcomputer effective as an educational tool.
'Courseware is useful for a teacher
who knows nothing about programing,'he said.
The magazine presents programs in
the areas of business, consumer economics, English, fine arts, foreign
language, industrial arts, mathematics, physical education, science and
social science.
The logic of each program Is printed out for the instructor in a step by
step explanation in order that it will

These explanations are 'in English,' Isaacson said, because symbols
and abbreviations, which are generally used, can be confusing to those
unaccustomed to using computers.
