Greetings and Felicitations. A few years ago, I prepared a lecture intended for presentation to non-computer majors at the University of Regina. This lecture has since been transferred to the world wide web (WWW), complete with slides and accompanying text. The material is presented in an orderly fashion, starting with the need for man to count in the stone ages and continuing on the developments with computers into the mid-late 80s. Both text-based and graphic browsers, with an without frames, are supported. The material also contains pointers to other sites on the net with related information to the current slide. For those of you who would like to use it in a non-network connected classroom, standalone copies are available to educators and museums. Mirror Sites: Canada: http://www.cs.uregina.ca/~hoyle/Lecture/ US : http://www.interpac.net/~eingang/Lecture/ Europe: http://www.ifi.unizh.ch/groups/se/people/hoyle/Lecture/ I hope you enjoy it and find it useful. Any comments or suggestions are appreciated. Michelle BTW: This lecture just won an award from Learning in Motion for being one of the top ten educational sites on the WW. ------ Michelle A.
