The present article is primarily targeted for the advanced college/university undergraduate students of chemistry/physics education, computational physics/chemistry, and computer science. The most recent software system such as MS Visual Studio .NET version 2010 is employed to perform computer simulations for modeling Bohr's quantum theory of…

The Chemistry Department at the University of California, San Diego, has 35 members, 20 of whom are experimentalists with either computers or plans to acquire one. Within the department there are turn-key systems connected to mini-computers or the department computer, an IBM 1800. There is little control over computers in the department and little…

This first article includes background material on computers that will be of value in understanding subsequent papers in the series. It also discusses the advantages and problems of implementing computer-based educational materials at locations and on machines for which the materials were not originally designed. (BB)

Describes a procedure for periodically sampling varying analog signals and storing its digitized signal in the computer. (MLH)

Discusses the controversy surrounding the initial decision to establish, and the current decision to phase out, the National Resource for Computation in Chemistry (NRCC), a computational chemistry center jointly sponsored by the National Science Foundation and the Department of Energy. (CS)

The pedagogy, logistics, and administration of computers in chemical education at the college level is detailed. (MP)

Discusses the recent decision to close down the National Resource for Computation in Chemistry (NRCC), implications of that decision, and various alternatives in the field of computational chemistry. (CS)

Discussed is the National Resource for Computation in Chemistry (NRCC) closing as of September 30, 1981. NRCC was the first effort of the U.S. chemical community to create a centralized research facility where chemists could gain access to equipment too costly for individual laboratories to buy and maintain.

Secondary school teachers incorporating the use of a computer in algebra, trigonometry, advanced mathematics, chemistry, or physics classes are the individuals for whom this book is intended. The content included in it is designed to aid the learning of programing techniques and basic scientific or mathematical principles, and to offer some…

It has become widely accepted that the computer is an indispensable tool in the study of science and technology. Thus, in recent years curricular programs such as Industrial Technology and associated scientific disciplines have been adopting and adapting the computer as a tool in new and innovative ways to support teaching, learning, and research.…
