Abstract

At the end of the 1980s, in view of its potential benefits, we decided to pilot the science interfacing package IP-Coach in some of our educational development cooperation projects. IP-Coach runs under MS-DOS and transforms an IBM-compatible microcomputer—equipped with a special interface board (UIB-board)—into a versatile measuring instrument.
