Suggestions are given for teaching flowcharting at the elementary school level. A short list of sources for free materials on computers is included. (DT)

Symbols and shapes used in flowcharting are defined, reasons for incorporating flowcharts into instructional activities are listed, and eight different flowcharts are presented. (DT)

Flowcharting of algorithmic procedures can be a useful tool for teachers of remedial arithmetic. (SD)

In this study, a unit on flow charts was developed and its effectiveness in helping teachers explain some algorithms from arithmetic was determined. Findings showed that constructing flow charts helped students give a more complete list of instructions for an algorithm, but didn't help them give better justifications for algorithms. (DT)

Use of the hand-dialed, transparent, nonelectronic SEE-Calculator is proposed. Pupils can dial numbers into appropriate columns, watching the gears work; place-value concepts are enhanced. Both activities and flowcharting are suggested. (MNS)
