This paper analyzes various kinds of student reaction to CAI materials: evaluations after the use of courseware, student feedback through a mail option for courseware on a main-frame computer, written comments solicited from students throughout the year, as well as information gathered from logs which were set up to collect, without the user's knowledge, a variety of data.
Types of computer exercises are discussed as well as the use and integration of courseware into a college FL program followed by observations of a language coordinator, teacher, and software author.
