Graphic displays of elliptic, parabolic, and hyperbolic surfaces can be generated by computers. (SD)

This article includes the results of a survey on the use of computers in chemistry education in British polytechnics, and a discussion of this use in the United Kingdom, the United States, and elsewhere. The author advocates that chemistry students learn to use, but not necessarily program, computers. (SD)

Using a computer equipped with a plotter, graphs of linear equations and trigonometric identities can be produced. Examination of these graphs can aid in teaching solution of equations. (SD)

Discussion and examples of the use of computer graphics in science and calculus instruction are provided. (SD)

Explains the use of computer assisted graphic display to permit the questioning and testing of fundamental chemical relationships. Illustrates the operation of the technique in a simple equilibrium experiment. (GS)

Describes a presentation of basic quantum mechanics for nonscience majors that relies on a computer-generated graphic display to circumvent the usual mathematical difficulties. It allows a detailed treatment of free-particle motion in a wave picture. (MLH)

The author describes use of hand calculators and computers in the college classroom. He discusses his philosophy about their use, and presents several problems which are especially amenable to use of a computer with a plotting facility. (SD)

It is felt that all the basic programing concepts can be taught by giving students experience with graphics. Students are viewed to be working on problems that truly interest them, rather than on the standard fare presented in most courses. A description of a class and a graphing program are included. (MP)

Discusses the programs and packages of a computer-assisted instruction project called Computational Physics Teaching Laboratory, in which students solve simulated physics at a computer terminal with visual display. (MLH)

Describes a computer simulation of reaction kinetics in atmospheric photochemistry. (SL)

Describes a computer graphics program for teaching engineering students basic principles of multiview projections with two preprocessors to simplify student involvement with computer languages. (SL)

Describes an introductory computer module required for all freshmen engineering students at Vanderbilt University. Computer graphics are used to increase student interest and sense of accomplishment. (SL)
