Der Artikel berichtet über die Arbeit zur Errichtung eines Datenabfrage- und Datenerfassungssystems zum Gebrauch von Mikrocomputern in Schulen. Das Ziel der Arbeit ist bei den Schülern Verständnis zu erleichtern über das Wesen der historischen Forschung, indem man ihnen eine Gelegenheit gibt, Daten selber zu sammeln, zu suchen und abzufragen. Indem man die enormen Kapazitäten und Möglichkeiten von Mikrocomputern in der Schule nutzt, will man den Schülern gleichzeitig einen praktischen Weg zum Verständnis der Arbeitsmethoden und der Natur von Informationsverarbeitung im Computerzeitalter geben.

'This article reports the work that has been undertaken to develop a data retrieval and interrogation package for use on microcomputers in schools. The aim of this work is to facilitate an understanding by the pupils themselves of the nature of historical investigation by giving them an opportunity to colate, store, search, and interrogate the material. By utilising the enormous power and potential of micros in the classroom it is also hoped that the pupils will be provided with a practical path for an understanding of the workings and nature of information storage and retrieval in a computer age.'
