Design Considerations

This article is not intended to be either an exposition of a theory of software design or an author's review of his own software. It presents a set of reflections on pedagogical, linguistic and design considerations that emerged in the process of producing a real, innovative and classroomfriendly piece of CALL software within the limitations imposed by a HyperCard environment and by the desire to create something that could be readily transported on floppy disk and would run on virutally anyone's Macintosh.

Microcomputer Software

This article surveys principles for the design and development of microcomputer-based instructional software. A set of design guidelines based upon existing research are outlined. Three approaches to authoring software are examined: general purpose programming languages, author languages, and authoring systems. The tradeoffs in using these three approaches are outlined. The implications of research in automated instructional development systems and intelligent tutoring systems are discussed.
