DESCRIPTION
Throughout the history of world civilization when ever new technologies became cultural technologies and/or primary work tools, schools have had to expand their curricula. The production line generated vocational education, the car necessitated driver education and the printing press created the need for schools to teach reading. It can, therefore, be expected that as the computer becomes both a cultural technology and a primary work tool during the coming period, it will generate the need for new educational services. The changes in the home, work place and society in general will cause a shift or expansion in the kinds of educational services that are needed and demanded. Educational system in the computer age is bound to undergo revolutionary changes.
