Thomas E. Kurtz at a
teletype |
Seven secondary schools in New England install teletypewriters as
part of an informal experimental project to determine how a
large-scale computer facility could best be used as a "broad aid to
secondary school education generally." They include Philips Exeter
Academy, St. Paul's School, Mount Hermon, Vermont Academy, Philips
Andover Academy, Hanover High School, and Mascoma Valley Regional
High School. This experiment is a precursor to the Dartmouth
Educational Network, that, at its peak, serves thirty colleges and
twenty secondary schools in New England, twelve colleges in Canada
over dedicated teletype terminals, and scores of educational and
research organizations from coast-to-coast over national commercial
networks. |
