Experimental Honors Seminar in Physics Explores Uses of Computers in Classroom.

Watkins, Beverly T.

Chronicle of Higher Education, v38 n2 pA29 Sep 4 1991

A Vanderbilt University (Tennessee) undergraduate honors course in the physics of technology, taught in a special advanced electronic classroom, uses a computer data-management program to create a "stack" of index cards, from which students can answer their own or others' questions about technology. Students learn both physics and clear thinking. (MSE)
