He bases his prediction on the Centers decision to expose more students to the computer. He estimates this year the number of students employing the machine will double, and that three times more students are using. the computer now than were three years ago. He says each year 2,000 students (about 20 percent of the total student population) are exposed to the computer in one way or another. Students of business, engineering and science apply the machine most frequently, he says. Instructors feel more free now to give students complicated problems because with computers, students are able to solve problems faster, and in new ways, Sharp says.

That same student may write programs to analyze economic trends, use existing programs to gather statistics or study an economic theory by computer assisted in- struction. Students who have been exposed to the computer are more productive on the job, Sharp claims. Because they are familiar with computer programs, they are aware of different, often faster, ways to solve problems.
