Increasing the effectiveness of teaching through the increased                  utilization of computerized learning is the objective of a project being        implemented in the Economics Department at Western Illinois University.         A multi-user multiprocessor computer and specialized software is being          used to expand and enhance the capabilities of the Department's Advanced        Learning System (ALS) that provides students with a choice of the manner        in which they learn.  In addition, the incorporation of new analytic            software packages into upper-level courses and the Honors Program is            providing "hands-on" computer experience for students preparing for             specific careers.  Significant improvements in undergraduate instruction        in economics are being implemented.
