Describes computer programs (with ordering information) on various topics including, among others, modeling of thermodynamics and economics of solar energy, radioactive decay simulation, stoichiometry drill/tutorial (in Spanish), computer-generated safety quiz, medical chemistry computer game, medical biochemistry question bank, generation of…

A bibliography of periodicals and directories which provide descriptions and reviews of microcomputer software for use in educational settings. (JJD)

A BASIC program is given that can calculate the approximate grade level of reading materials. (MK)

"Word Board," a program that can be used with various home computers, can be used as an educational aid with special applications for the handicapped. (MK)

A hypothetical design optimization problem and technical information on the three design parameters are presented. Although this nested iteration problem can be solved on a computer (flow diagram provided), this article suggests that several hand held calculators can be used to perform the same design iteration. (SK)

Computer programs to protect a home computer from tampering by a preschool child, while at the same time providing practice for the child in character and shape recognition, are given. (TG)

Describes the use of a word processor in preparing text for mailing personalized letters to many people. A sample program is included. (CMV)

This document describes BASCHART, a computer aid designed to decipher and automatically flow chart computer program logic; it also provides the computer code necessary for this process. Developed to reduce the labor intensive manual process of producing a flow chart for an undocumented or inadequately documented program, BASCHART will…

Current instructional uses of computers primarily involve an individualized approach which requires assigning one student per computer. However, the computer can also serve as an "electronic chalkboard" in small and large group instruction in the middle school. The equipment required for the electronic chalkboard include: (1) the…

Many useful diagnostic procedures and therapeutic exercises associated with cognitive therapy can be conducted with a popular interactive computing system such as that in use at Bellevue Hospital. When purchasing a computer for this purpose versatility and availability of software, serviceability, modularity, and speed are factors to take into…

Paper describes a method of analysing information based on theories about the way in which human beings tackle this problem. (Author)

THE USE OF A COMPUTER PROGRAM BY ENGINEERING STUDENTS TO SIMULATE A JOB SHOP THAT MANUFACTURES ELECTRONIC DEVICES HAS INDICATED THAT SIMULATION METHODS OFFER REALISTIC ASSISTANCE IN TEACHING. EACH STUDENT IN THE STUDY SUBMITTED SPECIFICATIONS FOR A CIRCUIT DESIGN AND, FROM THE COMPUTER, RECEIVED PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENTS OF THE CIRCUIT WHICH…

The goals of the Digital Systems Education Project (DISE) include the development and distribution of educational/instructional materials in the digital systems area. Toward that end, this document contains three reports: (1) A FORTRAN IV Design Program for Low-Pass Butterworth and Chebychev Digital Filters; (2) A FORTRAN IV Design Program for…

A general interface was planned to aid students in a course on computer design. Basically, the system is an electronic/logical device which provides 24 input-output channels for the attachment of logical components to a time-sharing computer. The device is useful in the design and development of computer-oriented modules. The costs of such an…

The Draft Report of the Joint Ad Hoc Subcommittee on Regional Computing Centres of the Committee of Presidents of Universities of Ontario made a tentative recommendation that a regional computer center should be developed for the use of Ontario universities. However, on further investigation it was found that such a computer center would be…
