Abstract	A study was made to investigate the uses of the computer in the field of learning disabilities and to improve the education and training of prospective learning disabilities specialists. This was accomplished by applying the ideas, concepts, methods, and procedures of the computer sciences to the curriculum of a program that prepares special personnel for the field of learning disabilities. The specific objectives were: (1) to develop interactive computer programs that would simulate the diagnostic and clinical-teaching processes and to implement those procedures within the curriculum of the learning disabilities program, and (2) to develop a mode for a course that would introduce the learning disabilities specialist to certain fundamentals of computer technology and to implement such a course within the learning disabilities curriculum. This report describes those two aspects of the project, as well as several related computer developments, certain sample programs, and a report of evaluation and dissemination procedures.
