with Lillian Bridwell-Bowles, "Integrating Computers into a Writing Curriculum; or Buying, Begging, and Building," in A Writer's Tool: The Computer in Composition Instruction, ed. William Wresch (Urbana IL: NCTE, 1984), pp. 107-19. To be reprinted in A Concise Guide to Computer Aided Writing Instruction, ed. David H. Roberts (New York: Holt, Rinehart, and Winston, 1991).

This chapter places our FIPSE project in the context of current information about word processors, style analyzing programs, computer-aided instruction, and other software. In a setting where one wishes to give the writer much freedom to think and write and keep our computing systems out of the way, little was available that would help more than a positive introduction to good word processing technology.
