Screen capture of The Universal Computer: Introducing Computer Science with Multimedia

CIMEL multimedia is accessible via the web (or CDROM). It requires Microsoft Internet Explorer 5 or higher, a current Flash player, a high speed connection (sound is sluggish via 56K modem connections, we're working on that), and a reasonably fast machine.   Go to the multimedia demo.

CIMEL multimedia currently features material for a first year course in computer science, associated with the textbook The UniversalComputer: A Multimedia Introduction to Computer Science. We are also looking for potential adopters of the multimedia and/or textbook in computer science courses.  Potential adopters can request access a login to the full multimedia (which students at Lehigh University are using), by sending email to the principal investigator.
