Discussed are the use of probability simulations in a mathematics classroom. Computer simulations using regular dice and special dice are described. Sample programs used to generate 100 rolls of a pair of dice in BASIC and Logo languages are provided. (YP)

Presented is an activity in which probability and percents are taught using a basketball computer simulation. Computer programs that replicate the free-throw accuracy of college and professional stars and allow students to compete with those stars are included. (KR)

Presented is a detailed review of eight computer software packages. Strengths, weaknesses, and recommendations for each game are listed. Mathematical and thinking skills, problem solving, drill and practice, procedural activities, decision making, understanding money, and basic skills are emphasized. (KR)
