DePalma, Paul – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 1997
Suggests that the dearth of computer science instruction in secondary schools may be due to a lack of teacher and administrator training. Proposes a program to retrain high school teachers of science and mathematics to teach computer science. The program would run two summers and contribute to a master's degree. (Author/AIM)

Signer, Barbara R. – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 1986
Reports on a study that was designed to investigate possible effects of inservice instruction (BASIC and LOGO/PILOT) on teachers' mathematical anxiety. Results indicated that teachers enrolled in BASIC programing courses manifested more mathematics anxiety after the course than those who were enrolled in a LOGO/PILOT course. (ML)

Winer, Jane L.; And Others – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 1988
Reports on performance aspects of educators' person-environment congruence as defined by Holland's occupational classification system. Concludes that the majority were of the Social, Conventional, or Enterprising types and oriented toward non-classroom use of computer literacy developed in the course. (RT)
