Personalized educational interventions have been shown to facilitate successful and inclusive statistics, mathematics, and data science (SMDS) in higher education through timely and targeted reduction of heterogeneous training disparities caused by years of cumulative, structural challenges in contemporary educational systems. However, the burden…

Describes a computer assisted program in which the computer program provides a self-paced, individualized component with course outlines, weekly assignments, answers to exam questions, and reports of student grades in a general chemistry course. (SL)

Reviews advantages of computer-based instruction in physics. Discusses ways computers can aid individual students; the computer as an intellectual tool; the computer controllable world; the computer as a testing and diagnostic aid; the Socratic dialog on computers; and various aspects of computer-based instruction for the future. (SK)

Reports the use of computer-managed instruction in introductory undergraduate geology courses in order to provide increased individualized instruction in large class situations. (SL)

Provides a summary of essential characteristics of the Personalized System of Instruction (PSI) and Programmed Logic for Automated Teaching Operations (PLATO) educational computer system. Considers future of the computer based education which effectively combines PSI with computer assisted instruction. Discusses current status and future use of…

Discusses an audio-tutorial anatomy and physiology course which was no more expensive to establish and operate than a traditional course. Topics include development of audio-tutorial materials, construction of facilities, space use, staffing, development of computer programs, and computer costs. (Author/JN)

Analyzes trends in physics teaching represented by papers presented at American Association of Physics Teachers' annual meetings. Major topics examined for the period from summer 1971 through summer 1983 include: Piagetian studies; personalized system of instruction; media; energy and environment; astronomy; and computer-oriented topics.
