Peer reviewedWheeler, James O.; Pannell, Clifton W. – Journal of Geography, 1973
Inquiry-discovery learning of processes involved in determining transportation patterns form the core of this teaching model. Promotes understanding of human behavior and geographic change and is sufficiently general for use at several teaching levels. (Author/JB)

Peer reviewedPeace, Nigel; And Others – Mathematics in School, 1997
Describes an activity in which geometry and trigonometry are studied using pyramids. Identical model pyramids are constructed from card stock, along with pyramids of different proportions and cuboids to use as controls. Also includes an investigation of some apparently non-scientific claims. (DDR)

This document describes how to teach a computer to add numbers using the LOGO programing language. The programing project is described in the way a student might develop it. The model of developing the program uses humans as an anthropomorphic model for the computer, and the computer as a model for people. The document has an unorthodox style, as…

Larmouth, Donald W. – Minnesota English Journal, 1970
The experimental program in remedial composition described in this interim report was designed on the assumption that students could best learn to write minimally acceptable compositions by imitating paragraph and essay models which have been divided into a series of incremental steps. The objectives of the program were to develop a heuristic…

Peer reviewedBeishuizen, J. J. – Journal of Computer Assisted Learning, 1992
Discussion of teaching complex knowledge domains through exploration highlights two experiments that investigated the educational value of a Dutch computer simulation program which models the relationship between erosion and agriculture in a developing country as part of the secondary school geography curriculum. Learning by doing versus learning…

Benander, Alan C.; And Others – Learning & Leading with Technology, 1997
Provides a model for planning a summer computer camp program to introduce inner-city high-school students to current computer technology. Topics include outside sources of funding; personnel, including instructors and assistants; recruiting students; curriculum, which emphasizes discovery and creativity; organization of activities; and evaluation.…

Haigh, William E. – 1987
This 3-week summer project was designed to (1) identify and improve the teaching capabilities of under-prepared junior high school mathematics and science teachers and (2) acquaint college and junior high school teachers with current techniques in mathematics and science at the two different levels (college and junior high) and continue…

International Association for Development of the Information Society, 2012
The IADIS CELDA 2012 Conference intention was to address the main issues concerned with evolving learning processes and supporting pedagogies and applications in the digital age. There had been advances in both cognitive psychology and computing that have affected the educational arena. The convergence of these two disciplines is increasing at a…
