Abstract
SUMMARY This article provides an overview of the development of computer-assisted instruction and the history of related theories. It discusses the integration of an Internet-based shell program into traditional social work courses at Florida State University. A description of the shell program itself is also provided. The results of student surveys from two courses indicated that the majority of students felt that the computer work enhanced their educational experience and increased their comfort using computers. The primary difficulties that students had centered on technical problems or problems related to having access to computers.
