          The purpose of this research study was to investigate appropriate features concerning hardware requirements and those related to the courseware development of computer-assisted instruction authoring system for elementary school teachers in Bangkok Metropolis. Samples consisted of 72 elementary school teachers in Bangkok Metropolis. They all received a one day training workshop pertaining to computer-assisted instruction authoring system packages. The questioners were used as research instruments. Data were analyzed by frequency by count and percentage.
The findings revealed that the appropriate features of computer- assisted instruction authoring system for elementary school teachers are as follows:
          1. Appropriate computer hardware model should be those already exist in school.
          2. Two sets of program levels are suggested for users to use to meet their needs.
          3. Appropriate computer-assisted instruction authoring system should be able to run under either DOS or Windows operating system.
          4. Computer - assisted instruction authoring system should provide several programming levels.
          5. Features such as color, font of characters, and drawing tools should be adequately provided.
          6. Appropriate graphics that can be manipulate should also be included in a program.
          7. Samples of computer-assisted instruction lesson should also be available.
          8. Ideal computer-assisted instruction authoring system should be able to provide sound and/or moving image. This can be done by connecting computer hardware to sound and/or video equipment.
