A series of three computer-generated films intended to serve as teaching aids in presenting ideas concerning the motion of electrons in periodic potential. (DF)

Data indicated that prompting was the better procedure to use for initial learning; confirmation treatment indicated that prior experience with the material was helpful. (Author)

A series of three investigations are developed utilizing earthquake data and a calculator system with a card reader, X-Y plotter and printout device. The investigations involve determining the spatial distribution of earthquake hypocenters with the goal of having students work with realistic data. (DF)
