Presents a computer program (Atari basic) called Animath (animated math program). A modified character set is to create a sauntering gorilla who, for example, jumps up and down when a problem is correctly solved. Extensive documentation is included. (JN)

Describes the use of programs written in BASIC and graphics facilities of microcomputers to make students aware of the assumptions of statistical models in linear regression and the design of experiments. Two references are cited. (CHC)

Presented are two computer programs which can be used to minimize the effort and time necessary to graph several individual functions. (TG)

Uses computer graphics and nonstationary, superposition wave functions to reveal the dynamic quantum trajectories of several molecular and electronic transitions. These methods are then coupled with classical electromagnetic theory to provide a conceptually clear picture of the emission process and emitted radiation localized in time and space.…

Explains how using computers to generate images, to gather high-speed data, and to make better models has greatly improved x-ray crystallography results. (Author/GA)

Explains that Adobe InDesign 2.0 moves desktop to new possibilities because it combines the best of modern graphics techniques. Provides explanations of the following aspects of InDesign: drop shadow; align objects; define styles; type on a path; grids; accessible patterns; gradients; create outlines; indexing; and shows missing point. (PM)

Considers the use of self-paced tutorials on the Internet to teach library users how to search the Internet. Discusses the present lack of an adequate tutorial, recommends the use of animated graphics, and suggests the need for good tutorials on the Internet that foster systematic learning. (LRW)

The paper describes computer programs which can present the results of individualized assessment in a graphical form readily understood by persons unfamiliar with research methodology. A study evaluating an Australian deinstitutionalization project has also produced individual data providing graphical feedback to primary caregivers of the mentally…

Examines differences among teleconferences with no graphics, conferences with graphics not directly complementing the audio message, and conferences with graphics directly complementing audio messages. Notes that the perceived quality of the graphics was significantly related to the perceived effectiveness of the teleconference. (MS)

Discusses a computerized phonetics program called BABEL, which is an expert system able to animate graphically and reproduce acoustically a text in any language that uses the Latin alphabet. The program is designed to assist language learners and instructors in the nuances of phonemes. (22 references) (GLR)

Describes the design and operation of four software packages, or macros, written in the programing language of Microsoft's EXCEL for use on the Macintosh computer for data manipulation and presentation used in educational research. Reordering tabulated data, reversing the scoring of tabulated data, and creating tables and graphs are explained.…

Presents the LOGO computer language as a source to experience and investigate scientific laws. Discusses aspects and uses of LOGO. Lists two LOGO programs, one to simulate a gravitational field and the other projectile motion. (MVL)

Discusses networked document imaging systems and describes necessary software features. Highlights include desktop workstations; network architecture; modular application software; images from a variety of formats; merging images with text; editing functions; managing an electronic library; document delivery formats; and printing. (LRW)

Illustrates how to use computer simulation models in statistics to study the quality of an estimation procedure and concurrently the subtle concepts of randomness and convergence. Special emphasis is given to the use of graphical representations. (MKR)

This article traces the historical development of fractal geometry from early in the twentieth century and offers an explanation of the mathematics behind the recursion formulas and their representations within computer graphics. Also included are the fundamentals behind programing for fractal graphics in the C Language with appropriate…
