A sample run of a program intended for use by students with access to a teletype or visual display computer is shown. The program is satisfactory for the testing of the law for up to about 20 generations using any valid set of frequencies for genotypes. (AJ)

Describes a computer program which can be used to explore the effects of various values of r and C on population growth, using electronic calculators. (BR)

This document outlines the operation of the Monte Carlo Integration Computer (MCIC), which is capable of simulating several types of chemical processes. Some data obtained through the MCIC simulation of physical processes are presented in graphs. After giving reasons for not using the initially contemplated summative research procedures for…

Describes a package computer program which is a simulation of a diffraction grating and discusses the uses of this program as a supplement to laboratory activities in physics. (BR)

An interactive, instructional videodisc was produced using films on wave motion/vibrations and Tacoma Narrows bridge collapse. The disc is appropriate for three levels of physics (physics/algebra; physics/calculus; non-major physics). Program sections (introduction to videodisc player, bridge collapse, influence of wind, bridge properties, and…

Discusses stages in the evolution of educational software and changes in general and specific software characteristics. Also discusses future developments in educational software and hardware, suggesting the development of a new area in educational and cognitive psychology centering on computers in education. (JN)

Describes 20 National Science Foundation (NSF)-funded projects, emphasizing those from which earth science instructional materials are replicable and available. Included are the general nature of the project, type of materials produced (audio-visual aids, computer programs, learning modules, earth science equipment, and others), grade/educational…

Discusses chaotic behavior (movement) in a nonlinear system using LOGO programs. Presents several examples with program listings. (MVL)

Reviews the Apple II program "Area and Volume" which investigates the areas and volumes of polygonal regions, circles, and solids for grades 6-12. Provides information updates on three programs: True BASIC 2.0, Turbo BASIC 1.0, and Microsoft QuickBASIC 3.0. (MVL)

This book, intended to serve as a resource guide for teachers wishing to implement computer-based learning in their own classrooms, is a collection of 29 classroom tested instructional programs designed to supplement an introductory chemistry course, regardless of text or approach. The programs cover a wide range of topics, from metric units of…

Outlines a variety of laboratory procedures, demonstrations, and classroom materials including a technique for estimating speed of electromagnetic waves; a support for multipin components when soldering; use of dynometer to measure force; bending light; using a microcomputer to measure and produce voltage; force-distance curves; and two games. (DS)

Discusses three programs where mirocomputers were added to the classroom to introduce technology and aid in instruction. Presents a high school chemistry class with a modem hookup to Purdue University, an elementary facility to track students by mastery, and a project where fourth graders each received a computer for home. (MVL)

Described is a practical resource that ties the specifics of classroom chemistry content to the specifics of teaching practice. Listed are 135 lessons found on three videodisks which have 700 pages of supporting written materials. Notes that the full gamut of the traditional high school curriculum is covered. (MVL)
