  abstract =     "The first course in Computer Science is often one of
                 the most difficult to teach. A large number of students
                 enroll, many with widely different aptitudes and
                 backgrounds, so that the traditional
                 lecture/presentation techniques aimed at the average
                 miss the majority. A number of alternates have been
                 proposed to overcome this problem. One of these is
                 Individually Prescribed Instruction (I P I). Using I P
                 I, the course material is initially partitioned into a
                 number of discrete units and given to a student one
                 unit at a time. The student reviews the material
                 contained in the unit and then takes a written
                 ``assessment'' to gage his mastery of the concepts. The
                 assessment is evaluated immediately and if the student
                 was successful the next unit is given, otherwise he
                 simply ``recycles'' the material. By this means the
                 student can progress at his own pace. The material in
                 this course has been broken down into seven units. In
                 addition to the written material, the student has
                 access to student tutors, faculty instructors and video
                 taped teaching aids. This paper reviews the
                 organization, construction and experience with using
                 the I P I approach over the past two years. Results to
                 date indicate that this method can be highly
                 successful, if administered to a proper subset of the
                 student population.",
