L'enseignement assisté par ordinateur. [...] La plupart des terminaux employés [...] sont constitués d'un écran cathodique de visualisation et d'un clavier de machine à écrire. À cette structure de base peuvent être couplés des supports audiovisuels très divers, dont le déclenchement est dirigé par l'ordinateur lui-même. Il peut s'agir d'un passeur de diapositives à accès très rapide, d'un projecteur de microfiches, d'un écran de télévision, d'un passeur de bandes sonores ou d'un synthétiseur de son. 1, record 2, French, - synth%C3%A9tiseur%20de%20son
