Gehring, Kalle B.; Moore, John W. – Microsystems, 1983
A PASCAL graphics and instrument interface program for a Z80/S-100 based microcomputer was developed. The computer interfaces to a stopped-flow spectrophotometer replacing a storage oscilloscope and polaroid camera. Applications of this system are discussed, indicating that graphics and analog-to-digital boards have transformed the computer into…

Chlad, Frank L.; Hardy, James K. – Journal of Chemical Education, 1983
Safety procedures used by Department of Chemistry at the University of Akron are discussed. These include policy that no chemicals are stored in the teaching laboratories. Instead, dispensing stockrooms are used to service the laboratories. Other aspects discussed include ventilation procedures and development of microprocessor use in stockrooms.…

Long, Joseph W. – Microsystems, 1983
Describes development of microcomputer-controlled gamma scintillation spectrometer and chromatographic data analyzer, including design and construction of interface electronics and production of software. Includes diagrams of electric circuits and project evaluation indicating that both instruments functioned as intended. (JN)
Descriptors: Chemistry, Chromatography, College Science, Computer Oriented Programs
Bishop, Marvin; Robinson, Gerald D. – Physiologist, 1981
Describes a method for undergraduate physiology students to measure plasma volume by the dye dilution technique, in which a computer is used to interpret data. Includes the computer program for the data analysis. (CS)
Descriptors: Biology, College Science, Computer Oriented Programs, Computer Programs

School Science Review, 1983
Discusses the Rugby clock as a source of project material, use of ZX81 for experimental science, computer dice analog, oil recovery from reservoirs, and computer simulation of Thompson's experiment for determining e/m for an electron. Activities/procedures are provided when applicable. Also presents questions (and answers) related to time-coded…

Ahl, David H. – Creative Computing, 1983
Describes a software/hardware system for running computer-controlled physics experiments. Each set of experiments consists of a disk (for Apple 48K), instruction manual, and student manual. The pendulum and acceleration experiments are described. Although not described, experiments using a temperature probe are also available. (JN)
Descriptors: Acceleration (Physics), College Science, Computer Oriented Programs, Computer Programs
De Gilio, John F. – Creative Computing, 1983
Offers a rationale and method for using the hand controllers (game paddles) in the design of computer programs for student use. Methods for their use in entering data as well as in conducting pendulum and acceleration experiments are provided. Complete program listings (for Apple) are included. (JN)
Descriptors: Acceleration (Physics), College Science, Computer Oriented Programs, Computer Programs

School Science Review, 1981
Outlines a variety of laboratory procedures, demonstrations, and classroom materials including a technique for estimating speed of electromagnetic waves; a support for multipin components when soldering; use of dynometer to measure force; bending light; using a microcomputer to measure and produce voltage; force-distance curves; and two games. (DS)

Moore, John W., Ed. – Journal of Chemical Education, 1983
Describes two approaches of assuring adequate student laboratory preparation by means of computerized, prelab quizzes. One, designed for the Apple microcomputer for introductory chemistry, is available on diskette from the authors. The other, for organic chemistry, is done on a time-shared system. Additional information on this program is…
