This curriculum guide is designed to teach concepts associated with business applications of microcomputers. It can be used in marketing, office education, and computer literacy courses. Most activities can be done in less than 1 hour. The course is organized in eight units that cover the following: (1) systems and software; (2) electronic filing; (3) personnel records management; (4) accounting; (5) inventory control; (6) financial records management; (7) communications; and (8) planning. Each instructional unit follows a standard format that includes some or all of these eight basic components: performance objectives, suggested activities for teachers and students, information sheets, assignment sheets, job sheets, transparency masters, tests, and answers to the tests. All unit components focus on measurable and observable learning outcomes and are designed for use in more than one lesson or class period. (KC)
