Discusses the procedures of using operational amplifiers to conduct student projects and teach physical phenomena such as oscillation, radioactive decay, terminal velocity, projectile and ball bouncing. (CC)

Discusses a creative engineering systems design program developed at the Clarkson College of Technology with the support of the Sloan Foundation. Indicates that the program leads to greater undergraduate use of computational facilities and more faculty research toward design applications. (CC)

Discusses the use of the city of Detroit as a design laboratory to operate Sloan Foundation programs in engineering education. Concludes that the student managed program provides valid and valuable educational experience by finding solutions to real world problems. (CC)

Discusses the study of design problems by interdisciplinary student-faculty groups under the sponsorship of the Sloan Foundation and in cooperation with industry, government, and community organizations. Included is a list of design projects. (CC)

Describes the demand for graduates from biomedical engineering programs as being not yet fully able to absorb the supply. Suggests small schools interested in entering the field consider offering their programs at the undergraduate level via a minor or an option. Examples of such options and student projects are included. (CC)

Reports a panel proceeding enumerating classroom experiences in teaching local and regional American history to high school and college students through oral history techniques. (TO)

Describes an interdisciplinary research project on production of food or fodder yeast from sewage. Indicates the presence of satisfactory educational and experimental results in operation of a pilot plant. (CC)

The results of a survey of project work in three science and technology departments at two universities and the deficiencies apparently inherent in these activities in their present form is summarized. (Author)

Discusses the trial of an elective course entitled Social Aspects of Chemical Engineering'' at McGill University. Indicates that student initiative is encouraged through the use of an uncertainly defined structure. (CC)

Describes a course for non-engineering students at Lafayette College which includes the design process in a project. Also included are the study of modeling, optimization, simulation, computer application, and simple feedback controls. (Author/TS)

Describes the revision of a dated short story anthology by a junior high school English class. (RD)

A report of an on-going experimental program utilizing "talking typewriters and teacher aides in a government-funded center to supplement reading instruction. (RD)
