Brumbaugh, Douglas K., Ed.; Hynes, Michael C., Ed. – School Science and Mathematics, 1979
A classroom photography activity is outlined that motivates learning of mathematical topics such as estimation, geometry, ratio, measurement, and algorithms. (MP)
Descriptors: Algorithms, Geometric Concepts, Instruction, Laboratories

Nussbaum, Francis, Jr. – American Biology Teacher, 1988
Presents an algorithm for solving problems related to multiple allelic frequencies in populations at equilibrium. Considers sample problems and provides their solution using this tabular algorithm. (CW)
Descriptors: Algorithms, Biological Sciences, College Science, Genetics

Pickering, Miles – Journal of Chemical Education, 1987
Discusses some of the difficulties involved with chemistry laboratory experiences and some laboratory manuals. Cites studies that indicate that part of the difficulty can be attributed to constraints relating to the short-term memory of the operational information and the assumption that students have a certain level of knowledge.
