Marion, Rodger; Niebuhr, Bruce R. – Collegiate Microcomputer, 1986
Discusses an algorithm for developing problem solving simulations using microcomputers, and describes both the components of the simulation algorithm and the user interface. Examples of simulation and programming methods are presented. (MBR)

Monaghan, James M.; Clement, John – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2000
Hypothesizes that the construction of visual models, resolution of these visual models with numeric models and, in many cases, rejection of commitments such as the belief in one true velocity, are necessary for students to form integrated mental models of relative motion events. Studies high school students' relative motion problem solving.…

Langley, Pat; And Others – 1984
The notion of buggy procedures has played an important role in recent cognitive models of mathematical skills. Some earlier work on student modeling used artificial intelligence methods to automatically construct buggy models of student behavior. An alternate approach, proposed here, draws on insights from the rapidly developing field of machine…

Timpone, Richard J.; Taber, Charles S. – Social Science Computer Review, 1998
Compares traditional mathematical models with computer simulations. Shows the strengths and flexibility of algorithmic computational simulations through a program designed to investigate and extend understanding in one of the most enduring questions in social choice research. Discusses solutions to this problem from each approach--analytic and…

Meijer, Joost; Riemersma, Fre – Instructional Science, 1986
Presents thinking-aloud protocols from secondary pupils solving arithmetic story and geometrical problems and analyzes their protocols by using interpretation models founded on a general problem-solving model. A word problem solving simulation is also used to further explicate processes pupils use to solve mathematical tasks. (Author/MBR)

Khonsari, Michael M.; Horn, Douglas – Engineering Design Graphics Journal, 1990
An algorithm is described for generating smooth curves of first-order continuity. The algorithm is composed of several cubic Bezier curves joined together at the user defined control points. Introduced is a tension control parameter which can be set thus providing additional flexibility in the design of free-form curves. (KR)

Vonder Embse, Charles B.; And Others – Arithmetic Teacher, 1988
Describes the Approaching Algebra Numerically (AAN) Calculator as a computer-based simulation of a hand-held calculator designed with novice learners in mind. Includes a complete description of the calculator and suggests uses for the calculator, including exponentiation, order of operations, scientific notation, concept of variable, and problem…
