Prior training research for contemporary efforts to exploit computers for training suggests the following precautions: 1) Computer-based training should always be conceived of in such a way that it can be related to what is known about conditions for effective training. 2) No computer offers a training system which is obviously so superior that no evaluation need be made or records kept. 3) Apply the computer not only to training, but also to any functions of the total training process that need automation. 4) Remember that systematic practice with feedback is still the best condition for learning. 5) Don's rely on any one type of research and development effort.
