Abstract
- This article reports on recent developments related to the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM). The ACM Nominating Committee is preparing to nominate candidates for Regional Representatives to Council from the Northeast, North Central, Pacific, and South Central regions. The elected representatives--one from each region--will serve a three-year term effective from June 1, 1975. The Special Interest Group on Computer Uses in Education has proposed two sessions for ACM 74. A session of four technical papers has been proposed. These four papers exhibit a rich variety of types of computer use in learning. One emphasizes the technique of artificial intelligence. Another paper by a Japanese author describes an ambitious computer managed system. The third paper illustrates a system that couples tape recorders to a minicomputer. And the fourth paper suggests the important role of the computer in self-paced courses. A new Committee on International Scientific and Technical Information Programs has been established within the Commission on International Relations of the National Academy of Sciences--National Research Council.
