                COMPUTATIONAL SCIENCE EDUCATION:
                    PRACTICE AND EXPERIENCE

           A one-day workshop at Edinburgh University

                         7th April 1995

-----------------------------------------------------------------

EPCC-TEC offer this workshop as part of its outreach work with
the JISC/NTSC.  We are hoping for wide attendance from teaching
staff at UK higher educational institutions. 

The aim is to provide an opportunity for the exchange of knowledge
and experience amongst those engaged in teaching the use of high-
performance computers, and to give UK teaching staff access to
the best practice at the national and international levels.
