an IM Report. EDUCATION PAPERS BY WARFIELD This manuscript is in MICROSOFT WORD-6, typed by Bonnie Seitz (John Warfield has never proof read the version typed by Bonnie) A CIM REPORT: The objective of this project was to design a learning sequence of mathematics courses which would best prepare students for competence in computer science. In the workshop sessions, software was used for the first time which enables a group to map a set of action options onto a problem structure. The resulting map is called a Resolution Structure. There is a Ventura transparency titled Curriculum Structure, Mathematics for Computer Science in computer files cav02 & edv01. It was done during this workshop, and might possibly be one of the figures in it, I don't know for sure. The 1986 version listed only Volkema, as the editor/author. The 1991 version is a reprint of the first version, Alexander Christakis was the main facilitator for the workshop; assistants were D.Keever, D. Tonella, Semi Ululatim, Margi Fiore,  all members of the CIM staff. In 1990 when Rose asked John for an explanation of the document for her annotation, he typed up an explanation suitable for Rose to use in her 1991 annotation work. John's explanation follows:  "A given ISM session creates a particular type of structure. One type is called a Problematique. It is a pattern of relationships among problems, showing how each problem may aggravate any other problem in the pattern. If a Problematique has been created, a second type of structure may sometimes be created which uses the Problematique as a given. To create this second type, called a Resolution Structure, a set of options is structured to show which proposed option (if any) will help resolve one or more problems in the Problematique. At the conclusion of this second ISM session, a larger pattern becomes available, which contains the Problematique as a sub-pattern. In this larger pattern, options connect to problems to show that those particular options will help resolve part of the Problematique. (John said that this workshop was the very first time that a Combined Resolution Structure had been created in a real-life situation, using the software for the first time that made it possible. Since then the technique has been used numerous times in other sessions. He said it is not that difficult to do this structuring, but nobody had had the time to do it before this workshop.)
