  abstract =     "This paper describes the teaching of computer design
                 using a new and quite unusual hardware aid,
                 macromodules. Of all the new areas emerging in Computer
                 Science the teaching of computer structures, from an
                 engineering viewpoint, has continually challenged the
                 professional educator. This has in a sense presented a
                 dilemma to him: for digital computer system design
                 requires a broad look at a variety of configurations,
                 but also seems to require a comprehensive examination
                 of individual circuit details in order to remain in a
                 practical atmosphere. As is well known, such detailed
                 investigation of many systems is virtually impossible
                 in the time allotted in most cirricula.Introduction of
                 the macromodular concept, however, has permitted
                 individual students, in one or two semesters, to
                 achieve {$<$ u$>$ realizable$<$}/{u$>$} designs of such
                 devices as I/O channels, microprogrammed machines,
                 complete small digital computers, floating point
                 arithmetic systems and list processing hardware.",
