Abstract

This article summarizes the efforts to apply high technology to the teaching and learning of languages at Brigham Young University. These efforts are largely centered around three separate departments. These are: 1) The Learning Resource Center which in addition to the normally expected audio and visual equipment, courseware and other resources also offers courses on the TICCIT Computer System; 2) the David O. McKay Institute of Education which did pioneer research work in the area of videodiscs and associated technology; 3) and the Humanities Learning Resource Center which offers several facilities for the benefit of the language student and which provides an Apple Language Lab for those students.
