Describes an undergraduate organic chemistry experiment which illustrates the use of organoboranes in organic syntheses and provides for the anti-Markownikoff hydration of alkenes. (MLH)

Describes a circuit (utilizing simple equipment) which can be used to measure the period of a harmonic oscillator. (CP)

Offers a course description of an introductory course in physics for nonscientists. The history of research into extrasensory perception is used as evidence of the scientific method. Lecture demonstrations are discussed. (Author/CP)

Discusses an overall educational program to train both specialists and the public in food science. Presents food statistics, and discusses the importance of food engineering and applied microbiology courses. (MLH)

Applies the charge cloud model of atomic and molecular structure to three problems to show simplicity of calculations and interpretation of results. (CP)

Two mechanics problems which clearly show relativistic correction factors and may be suitable for introductory mechanics instruction are shown. (CP)

Describes a method to experimentally determine the longitudinal shift of a microwave beam at total internal reflection. Suggests that the activity be incorporated into an undergraduate laboratory program due to its ease in set-up and clarity of results. (CP)

Presents numerous questions concerning transportation systems, energy consumption, noise, air pollution and other transportation oriented topics. Solutions are provided using undergraduate pre-calculus mathematics. (CP)

Presented is a simplification of an undergraduate relativistic mechanics problem concerning the visual appearance of a rapidly moving sphere as viewed from various angles. (CP)

Explains the use of computer assisted graphic display to permit the questioning and testing of fundamental chemical relationships. Illustrates the operation of the technique in a simple equilibrium experiment. (GS)

Two instructional methodologies are described in this article: (1) a case study approach is advocated for the relevance and motivation it provides, and (2) a lecture and group study approach in which behavioral objectives must be met. (CP)

Describes the teaching of drug interactions to a college science class, using supplementary literary and historical information provided by a literature professor. (MLH)
