Discusses a research project that uses artificial intelligence techniques to help teach programing. Describes principles and implementation of the LISP Intelligent Tutoring System (LISPITS). Explains how the artificial intelligence technique was developed and possible future research. (MVL)

A paper given at a conference on statistical computation discussed teaching statistics with computers. It concluded that computer-assisted instruction is most appropriately employed in the numerical demonstration of statistical concepts, and for statistical laboratory instruction. The student thus learns simultaneously about the use of computers…

This booklet was written to help the mathematics teacher introduce computers through an easy, problem-oriented language. In Section I, a problem is selected and solved in a manner that builds up the use of the language. In Section II, the language is applied to three sample problems to illustrate further the programming techniques presented in…

An initial project that uses a computer-controlled, laser-read videodisc as a tool in ballet instruction at the University of Iowa is described. (MP)

A description is given of a program for providing computer services to secondary schools throughout the Province of Manitoba. (MP)

Describes a course entitled Computer Applications in Science," offered by the Physics Department at Queen Mary College, London. Lists topics included in the lectures and topics handled by means of computer projects assigned to students. (Author/TS)

This is the first of three parts of a report that evaluates the present state of development of microcomputer and video-disc technologies as they relate to education. (MN)

Reports the use of computer-managed instruction in introductory undergraduate geology courses in order to provide increased individualized instruction in large class situations. (SL)

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)

Describes a computer graphics program for teaching engineering students basic principles of multiview projections with two preprocessors to simplify student involvement with computer languages. (SL)
