Let's say you were planning to introduce sophisticated workstations (each
with a mouse) to people with experience with dumb(er) terminals only.

What would you say are key steps that need to be taken to enable these
people to readily understand and effectively use a mouse?

What case/research studies or training materials exist that can be
consulted/used to facilitate transition to sophisticated equipment?
