The experimental use of interactive computer systems in a secondary school and the evaluation of this program are described. (SD)

Experience with data processing must be included in courses dealing with computer science. A series of examples of data processing problems suitable for classroom use is presented. (SD)

The use of computers in secondary school mathematics programs in five countries (England, Scotland, United States, Canada, and Australia) are discussed. (SD)

An approach to teaching children aged 12 through 14 a substantial course about computers is described. Topics covered include simple algorithms, information and communication, man-machine communication, the concept of a system, the definition of a system, and the use of files. (SD)

This booklet was designed for the use of junior high school or high school students. Detailed, step-by-step instructions are given for using the computer, for writing programs in BASIC, and for using the various commands in the BASIC language. A list of 75 computer programing ideas in varying degrees of difficulty is presented in the index. (MP)

The author describes an evaluation of a program conducted in three South Australian high schools using a mini-computer. While the computer provides the means, the ultimate success of the computer's use in the school depends on the ability and enthusiasm of the teaching staff involved. (BT)

Upper-level secondary students investigated square and triangular numbers and Pythagorean triples using computers. (SD)

This teacher's guide is for a course designed to teach business students the fundamentals of the BASIC language and computer programming using a series of business-oriented programs. Each lesson contains an introduction, flow charts, and computer programs. The six lesson topics are print-out and format control, count-average, withholding tax…

Describes a package computer program which is a simulation of a diffraction grating and discusses the uses of this program as a supplement to laboratory activities in physics. (BR)

This document reviews problems associated with computer assisted instruction (CAI) in secondary level physics programs. Major problems are listed as availability, transportability, and validity. Programs for effective use of CAI are reviewed, future research in CAI is suggested, an extensive review of CAI research is provided, and a detailed list…

The merits of having students interact with the computer rather than use canned programs to solve problems are discussed. Examples are provided. (SD)

The use of computers in the science classrooms of Great Britain is reviewed. Major emphasis is given to the Computer Aided Learning (CAL) Packages. Criteria which justify the development and use of CAL materials are illustrated through reference to and description of specific packages. (BT)

Three forms of computer-augmented algebra programs were evaluated at each of two secondary schools with respect to mathematics achievement and attitude. Results of the 4-month program showed lower achievement among the computer group, while results of the 9-month program showed the no-computer group achieved significantly higher. (DT)

Explains how the computer was used in a high school physics course; Project Physics program and individualized study PSSC physics program. Evaluates the capabilities and limitations of a $600 microcomputer system. (GA)
