Describes computer programs (with ordering information) on various topics including, among others, modeling of thermodynamics and economics of solar energy, radioactive decay simulation, stoichiometry drill/tutorial (in Spanish), computer-generated safety quiz, medical chemistry computer game, medical biochemistry question bank, generation of…

A hypothetical design optimization problem and technical information on the three design parameters are presented. Although this nested iteration problem can be solved on a computer (flow diagram provided), this article suggests that several hand held calculators can be used to perform the same design iteration.

Discusses use of computers in Electrical Engineering (EE) at Virginia Polytechnic Institute. Topics include: departmental background, level of computing power using large scale systems, mini and microcomputers, use of digital logic trainers and analog/hybrid computers, comments on integrating computers into EE curricula, and computer use in…

Describes technologies applicable for educational use, including computers, calculators, video storage, and word processing devices among others. Applications of the new technologies to basic skills in reading and comprehension are given. Three goals for the 1980s resulting from new information technologies are suggested. (JN)

Thirteen computer/calculator programs (available from authors) are described. These include: representation of molecules as 3-D models; animated 3-D graphical display of line drawings of molecules; principles of Fourier-transform nuclear magnetic resonance; tutorial program for pH calculation; balancing chemical reactions using a hand-held…

Different programs have been developed for the simulation of physics experiments by using TI-57 programmable calculators. Two of these programs, describing the simulation of a successive radioactive decay and the random motion of a gas molecule, are presented. (Author/SK)

Describes 10 computer programs (available from authors), including graphics display of molecular structure, cyclohexane stereo chemistry, calculation of thermodynamics properties of chemical reactions, and others. Also described graphical display of chemical interactive programs using a programmable calculator and discusses distribution of…
