Abstract

A computer aided instruction facility is presented, in which the simulation of field battles introduces history students to the dynamic relationships between space and time in a historical perspective. Information on a field battle is compiled by a history teacher or analyst, from textbooks or other historical material. The facility provides for the transformation of information obtained in this way into computer database relations. The progress of a field battle is simulated when a student interactively requests a graphical display of events.
