The plate and frame filtration experiment is one of the essential experiments performed by undergraduate students during their practical education. While this experiment often relies on the conventional manual recording of data and calculation, there are frequent problems with data collection because capturing transient data of filtrate volume and…

This research aims to investigate the use of an artificial intelligence-based mobile application with plants and plant identification techniques (AImPLANT) with prospective science teachers in outdoor activities. The goals of the study are: (i) to develop an AI-based mobile application from scratch based customized for education (ii) to enhance…

This paper reports the development of a digital escape room for high school students using Genially, a web-based media platform. The escape room was used to aid understanding of basic concepts in chemistry and mostly enhance students' classes participation during the COVID-19 pandemic. The activity entitled "The thalidomide mystery"…

Outlines strategies adopted in producing a software package called SCRIBE and procedures through which tests can be produced, student responses marked, and reports generated. A brief summary of the reactions of teachers to the package is also included. (JN)

Described is the Dynamic System Simulation Language (SIM) mini-computer system utilized at the University of California, Los Angeles. It is used by engineering students for solving nonlinear differential equations. (SL)

Discusses the use of a microcomputer/mini-floppy disk system by physics students to store and analyze experimental data and exchange messages with the lab instructor. Also discusses other uses, in particular those fostering critical thinking and hypothetico-deductive reasoning. (Author/SK)

The Computer Aids for Chemical Engineering Education (CACHE) guidelines identify desirable features of large-scale computer programs including running cost and running-time limit. Also discussed are programming standards, documentation, program installation, system requirements, program testing, and program distribution. Lists of types of…

By the year 2000 the major way of learning at all levels, and in almost all subject areas, will be through the interactive use of computers. Many of the factors involved in this revolution in education are reviewed. (BB)

Describes a method for teaching the technique of nearest-neighbor frequence analysis (NNFA) for testing the fidelity of template DNA replication. (Author/BB)

Offers a critique on some of the papers on computers in science teaching that were presented at the 1985 National Association for Research in Science Teaching meeting. Implications for the conduct of research on computers in science learning are also suggested. (JN)

The substance of a commentary (SE 539 500) is a criticism of the over-generalizations by authors of computer-assisted instruction papers at the 1985 annual meeting of the National Association for Research in Science Teaching. This reaction attempts to examine the validity of the criticisms made in the commentary. (JN)

Reviews software on: gas laws for IBM (disk available-SERAPHIM); gas chromatographic separation simulation for TRS-80 (listing available from author); vapor pressure data display with theoretical fit for Apple (author will copy on your disk); and second virial coefficients of nonpolar gases using the Kihara potential for TI-59 calculators. (JM)

Provides short descriptions of chemists' applications of computers in instruction: an interactive instructional program for Instrumental-Qualitative Organic Analysis; question-and-answer exercises in organic chemistry; computerized organic nomenclature drills; integration of theoretical and descriptive materials; acid-base titration simulation;…

This is a statement calling for funding of various activities to assist schools in becoming aware of microelectronics. A list of projects is given. (Author/SA)

Describes a computer assisted program in which the computer program provides a self-paced, individualized component with course outlines, weekly assignments, answers to exam questions, and reports of student grades in a general chemistry course. (SL)
