O'Donoghue, J.; Bajpai, A. C. – Programmed Learning and Educational Technology, 1979
Describes experiences with a Keller-style computer studies course for future mathematics teachers. Aspects of the implementation are detailed, the motivation for thoughts behind the course are discussed, and the evaluation of student performance is supplemented by students' reactions to the course as measured by a semantic differential.…

Feeney, John E. – Arithmetic Teacher, 1982
Ten activity cards, designed to introduce students in upper elementary grades to programing in BASIC, are presented. The concepts and skills involved are thought to correspond to the pupils' knowledge of mathematics and aid in reinforcement. The cards represent a total of about one hour of computer time. (MP)

Piele, Donald T. – Creative Computing, 1982
The problems used in the Second Annual Computer Problem Solving Contest are presented. There are three groups of five problems, which corresponded to Elementary, Junior, and Senior contest sets. The contest questions are seen as interesting for individual study, and potentially useful to teachers of computer programing. (MP)

Computer-Assisted Instruction in Programming: A Curriculum Description. Technical Report Number 211.
Friend, Jamesine – 1973
A course has been developed which provides an introduction to computer programing for community college students who have taken high school algebra. Instruction is presented by computer and a student reference manual is provided. The content resembles that of other introductory courses in computer programing, including topics on stored programs,…

Dwyer, Thomas A. – 1970
Several principles for the effective use of computers in education are identified as a result of experiences with Project Solo, an experiment in education patterned on the dual-solo example of flight instruction in allowing the student to eventually exert more influence on his learning than his instructor. First, the essential social character of…

Stolurow, Lawrence M. – 1968
Computer assisted instruction (CAI) can achieve its potential as a tool for individualizing instruction only if the flexible logic and memory capabilities of computers are utilized. An instructional program must be written in such a way that it can handle at least three variables: (a) who is being taught; (b) what is critical; and (c) how the…

Pannwitt, Barbara – Curriculum Report, 1983
The first of a three-part series on computer-assisted instruction (CAI), this report describes 11 exemplary programs across the country that involve the use of microcomputers for instruction in computer science, mathematics, and science at the elementary and secondary levels. At the head of each description are the name and address of the school…

Smallwood, Richard D. – 1968
The development of computer-directed instruction in which the learning protocol is tailored to each student on the basis of his learning history requires a means by which the many different trajectories open to a student can be resolved. Such an optimization procedure can be constructed to reduce the long and costly calculations associated with…
