Abstract
Costs to faculty in time and costs for the purchase of software help inhibit widespread instructional computing. mpAuthor is an expensive program for DOS/IBM microcomputers; anyone able to use a word processor producing ASCII files can create menu-driven exercises. Several examples of its use are presented, including some to improve thinking and problem- solving skills. Strengths of the program include: minimal computer skills required (have students create exercises instead of a term paper or as a project); works with virtually any DOS microcomputer (students can study anywhere); and easily exchange exercises with colleagues, and customize their exercises for your courses.
