Developmental Learning Materials (DLM) was a Dallas, Texas based company that was founded by Jerry Chaffin and Bill Maxwell. DLM created a series of what they termed "Arcademic" software titles for the TI-99/4 and TI-99/4A. Arcademic is an amalgamation of the words academic and arcade and intended to portray the notion that learning could be enhanced in an entertaining environment that acted more like a video game. DLM was also involved with Walt Disney in the mid-1980s in helping them produce several titles for the TI-99/4A. It is said that former Texas Instruments (TI) programmers John Phillips and Michael Archuleta worked for DLM for a time until work dried up for TI programming.
