Suggests approaches to teaching computer programing and applications to physics instruction. Indicates that the necessity of breaking a problem down into a programable entity ensures that the student will learn programing, logical sequential thinking, as well as physics content. (JN)

Describes fourteen different BASIC computer programs to aid teaching secondary physics. (SL)

Describes a computerized method to test error analysis that helps motivate introductory physics students to learn the topic. The computer generates a test consisting of four topics from a list of 10 that students should know. Numerical data within realistic ranges are also generated. (JN)

Describes computer program (available on diskette for Apple IIe/II-plus, Commodore PET/CBM, or Commodore 64) providing drill/practice on concepts of electric charge, electric current, and electric potential difference. A second diskette provides a test of fifteen multiple-choice questions, with option to print score and areas of weakness. (JM)
