# What Use Is The QL In Education

For over a year now I have had three QLs set up in my classroom at Chapel Hill High School where I teach introductory Spanish and am the speech and debate team coach. The QLs are expanded to at least 640K of RAM, have three and a half inch disk drives, and RGB monitors (2 QL monitors and a SANYO DMC 6113). I have gradually assembled these systems as friends and acquaintances have gotten rid of their orphan computers and gone on to Big Blue. I use the computers for word processing chores that are the mainstay of a teacher’s life and times, as well as doing grades and writing grade reports. In addition, I use them for instruction with two programs; REVISOR and DBTUTOR.
