Described is a computer simulation designed to introduce students to some of the intricate relationships between the many factors involved in international economics. (MP)

Computers can be used in elementary statistics courses not only to perform calculations, but also to perform simulations to clarify concepts and theorems. Computer programs for a sample distribution of the mean and for the central limit theorem are given and discussed. (MNS)

A computer program is given to simulate the operation of the Galton quincunx, a device to approximate a normal distribution. (MNS)

Presents a program in Level II BASIC for a TRS-80 computer that simulates a Turing machine and discusses the nature of the device. The program is run interactively and is designed to be used as an educational tool by computer science or mathematics students studying computational or automata theory. (MP)

The problem deals with calculating the probability that two or more students in a given class have the same birthday. A sample of an experiment that can be carried out by hand in a class is first noted. A program written in BASIC and a sample run is then presented. (MP)

Computer simulations can be used in social studies to analyze problems by using a representation or model of a situation and then exercising the model to see how it behaves under different circumstances. Utilizing available computer programs, students can also build and use social studies data bases. (RM)

The computer simulation game "Curve-Fit" is described. Its overall objective is to fit curves to six different data sets by estimating the parameters of each curve. (MNS)

The use of the PLATO and EDUCOM systems in legal education are described. Teaching techniques (simulation and gaming), their role in law school curricula, and a survey of uses nationwide are discussed. Available at 675 S. Westmoreland Ave., Los Angeles, CA 90005. (MSE)

Described is the computer model "MALAR" which deals with malaria and its eradication. A computer program allows the tenth- to twelfth-grade student to attempt to control a malaria epidemic. This simulation provides a context within which to study the biological, economic, social, political, and ecological aspects of a classic world…

Innovative and interesting energy awareness computer simulations are developed to demonstrate how rapidly world energy reserves are depleted, how quickly and enormously the demand for energy grows, and the importance of energy conservation and conversion. (Author/CMV)

Described is the use of the computer model "BUFLO." BUFLO is a simulation which allows students to study the historical and biological reasons for the extinction of the buffalo. BUFLO simulates the natural life cycle of the buffalo and allows the student to manipulate harvesting policies to reach certain goals outlined in the student handbook.…
