RAMAT-GAN — One hundred promising pupils from depreSsed areas in the Tel Aviv region have com- pleted extra-mural studies given by Bar-Ilan Univer- sity's Rabbinic Responsa Computer Project. _ This is the second year the studies have been held. The youngsters devote four hours weekly over a year to them. The Rabbinic Responsa Computer Project at Bar- Ilan aims at recording Rab- binic Responsa given over more than 1,500 years on computer tape for easy re- trieval and research.' The pupils received in- struction within the framework of the develop- ment program of the Minis- try of Education and Cul- ture. This year two groups of pupils from state schools were added. Their interest was so great that a special follow-up course was ar- ranged for the school holi- days. During the year part of the study circles were held at the Bnei Brak Yeshiva High School and part at Bar-Han Univer- sity. Half the time was devoted to computer studies. The other half was taken up by Jewish studies with the aid of Rabbinic Responsa pro- vided by the computer. This method of studying Torah with the aid of mod- ern scientific methods has increased the pupils' moti- vation to improve both their Jewish and scientific studies.
