This paper reviews a number of delivery styles and methods that may be used to provide computer-assisted learning (CAL) and the benefits of using them in the curriculum. These include the lecture, tutorial, laboratory, self-assessment, and problem-solving. Finally a checklist for successful implementation is presented, covering software, hardware, student, staff and institutional issues.

The "Chemistry Teacher Connection" (CTC) is especially for high school chemistry teachers. For only $40/year, it offers an online-only subscription to CLIC along with membership in the Division of Chemical Education, normally $65/year. CTC subscribers receive access to all articles and supplements from 1996 through the current issue.
Through special arrangement with the ACS, JCE High School CLIC is now able to provide subscribers with online access to Chemical & Engineering News articles that have been selected specifically for secondary science instructors and their students.
Occasionally, collections of JCE back issues become available for donation to individual teachers, schools, or libraries. JCE matches collections with interested recipients. Recipients pay shipping costs or pick up the collection.
