The authors suggest a few games for which programmable pocket calculators are used to create an environment in which mathematical concepts can be experienced more easily by students. (Author/MK)

In this paper, prepared for a European conference on mathematics education, the author examines three types of computer use in undergraduate and high school classrooms: Using the computer as an instructional tool for student development of algorithms, teaching about the computer itself, and use of computer-assisted instruction. (SD)

The merits of having students interact with the computer rather than use canned programs to solve problems are discussed. Examples are provided. (SD)

The role of optimization in mathematical, physical, biological, social, and management sciences is examined. A plea is made for giving optimization a central place in the mathematics education of scientists and technologists. (Author/MK)

The author argues that teaching students to program a computer enhances their logical reasoning, problem solving skills, understanding of models, and ability to examine one's work critically. (SD)

By using a computer to simulate experimental situations, engineering laboratory courses can provide more ambitious experiments as well as experiments demanding more calculations. (SD)

Problems of designing a college honors program in computer science as an academic discipline are disucssed. (MM)
