Papadakis, Stamatios; Kalogiannakis, Michail; Orfanakis, Vasileios; Zaranis, Nicholas – International Journal of Web-Based Learning and Teaching Technologies, 2017
Teaching programming is a complex task. The task is even more challenging for introductory modules. There is an ongoing debate in the teaching community over the best approach to teaching introductory programming. Visual block-based programming environments allow school students to create their own programs in ways that are more accessible than in…

Coutts, Douglas – American Secondary Education, 1998
Control charts are practical tools to monitor various school indicators (attendance rates, standardized test scores, grades, and graduation rates) by displaying data on the same scale over time. This article shows how principals can calculate the upper natural-process limit, lower natural-process limit, and upper control limit for attendance. (15…

Bock, Larry T. – 1982
As the first step in a district energy conservation program, the Blair (Nebraska) Community School District installed a load programmer in 1980 to control power usage in the 144,000 square foot junior-senior high school. The cost of the load programmer was less that $8,500, including installation, and during the initial year of operation, the…

Charp, Sylvia – Viewpoints in Teaching and Learning, 1981
The computer has not yet reached its full potential in the secondary school. Besides instructional usage, present usages of the computer include computer-managed instruction, acquisition of basic skills, teaching computer literacy, evaluating occupational information, and providing data about colleges and universities.

Morelli, Ralph – Journal of Computing in Higher Education, 1990
An experiment applied the theories of knowledge engineering and expert systems to science instruction for junior high school students. The model encourages a more creative, constructivist approach to teaching certain science concepts and skills while fostering improvement of logical thinking, communication, and independent learning skills. Results…

Herl, Howard E.; O'Neil, Harold F., Jr.; Chung, Gregory K.W.K.; Dennis, Robert A.; Lee, John J. – 1997
The feasibility of the administration, scoring, and reporting of an on-line concept mapping system has been studied in collective research in which concept map construction systems were designed to allow students individually and collaboratively to construct concept maps on the computer to measure content understanding and collaboration. The study…

Weaver, Dave – 1986
Science interfacing packages (also known as microcomputer-based laboratories or probeware) generally consist of a set of programs on disks, a user's manual, and hardware which includes one or more sensory devices. Together with a microcomputer they combine to make a powerful data acquisition and analysis tool. Packages are available for accurately…

Connell, Michael L.; Ravlin, Susan B. – 1989
A change of emphasis in mathematics education may be needed from a mechanical and computational focus to a problem-solving approach. A first step in facilitating this goal is to place children in situations emphasizing problem-solving skills, requiring them to develop and apply their own logic structures. This paper describes a microcomputer based…
