Kristin Leigh McKitrick-Rojas – ProQuest LLC, 2022
As teachers plan for instruction, technology integration is an important factor in the planning and implementation process. This has become imperative in a virtual learning environment for instructors to be competent (Gregory & Lodge, 2015). Problems exist with integrating technology that aligns with teaching and learning in content areas.…

Kiernan, Gerard – College Mathematics Journal, 1985
Provides several algorithms that use extended precision methods to compute large factorials exactly. The programs are written in BASIC and PASCAL. The approach used for computing N considers how large N is, how the built-in limitation on exact integer representation can be bypassed, and how long it takes to compute N. (JN)
