Describes an exercise involving the use of kinematics to decide if one should stop or try and get through an intersection when the traffic light turns yellow. Gives students' experience in recording data, doing simple calculations and connecting classroom studies to real world experiences. (Author/SK)

Briefly describes some experiments which give indications that neutrinos may not be massless particles. (SK)

Describes the features of various computer chemistry programs. Utilization of computer graphics, color, digital imaging, and other innovations are discussed in programs including those which aid in the identification of unknowns, predict whether chemical reactions are feasible, and predict the biological activity of xenobiotic compounds. (CS)

Describes the use of a microcomputer in studying a model experiment (Brownian particles colliding with thermal particles). A flow chart and program for the experiment are provided. Suggests that this experiment may foster a deepened understanding through mutual dialog between the student and computer. (SK)

Presents the procedures involved in conducting a photochemical experiment intended to provide undergraduates with exposure to the synthetic advantages of organic photochemistry. (Author/SA)

Describes the process dynamics and control program developed by the chemical engineering department at the University of California, Santa Barbara. Undergraduate and graduate control courses and real-time computing courses are included. (HM)

Presents seven selected biology notes which could be used in the school biology courses. Each includes the name of the author and a description of activities suggested. (HM)

Describes a technique for the laboratory culture of Eucyclops agilis using Euglena. Details of the life cycle are given, and suggestions for its use in laboratory practicals, and in investigations with sixth-form (16 to 18 year-olds) and college students in the United Kingdom. (Author/HM)

Describes a laboratory demonstration in chemical equilibrium using ferric chloride and ammonium thiocyanate that would serve as a useful basis for an inquiry investigation. (BT)

Describes a programed, independent study, college level, general chemistry course designed to develop good technical laboratory skills with no attempt made to relate laboratory experiments and classroom topics. A list of experiments used and a sample laboratory examination are included. (BT)

Described is a base-friction modeling technique for studying the development of collapse structures in jointed rocks. A moving belt beneath weak material is designed to simulate gravity. A description is given of the model frame construction. (Author/SA)

An experiment for senior college undergraduate physics students is described. Amorphous tungsten trioxide films are suggested for use since they have a unique electrochromic system. (Author/SA)

Describes a high school chemistry experiment which involves the reaction between calcite and hydrochloric and sulfuric acids. This reaction can be carried out as a projected demonstration and on an individual basis. (HM)

A course is described that is designed to encourage exploration, conceptual invention, and expansion of an idea. Results are given that relate to curricular experimentation with chemistry. (SA)

Describes an experiment comparing the monolingual and bilingual approaches to foreign language teaching. Two 6th grade classes in English were taught for nine class periods, one by the monolingual and one by the bilingual method. A slight advantage in favor of the monolingual method is reported.
