✦ Synopsis

The "Zentralstelle" (Centre for programmed instruction and instructional computer application) was created in 1968. In 1981 the Bavarian Government decided to strive for multifunctional use of the computer in secondary education. At present over 60% of schools have one or more micro-computers. They receive instruction and assistance from the Zentralstelle. Other activities include organising inservice courses and developing and testing of programmes.
