Describes the use of Marchant 1016PR with a magnetic tape reader, Monroe 1665 with a punchcard reader, and Hewlett-Packard 9820A with an X-Y plotter to conduct introductory physics laboratory programs. Indicates that the course allows more physics to be done in the same amount of time. (CC)

Presents information about East European higher education in comparison with that in the U.S. and the U.S.S.R., and concludes that American education at this level is more efficient and superior to most everything encountered in the studied countries, including the U.S.S.R. (CC)

Describes the use of a simulation lesson which is written in TUTOR language for the PLATO computer for the purpose of separating a mixture of four ions with known identity. Indicates that students have more freedom to experiment than in laboratories in other traditional computer-assisted programs. (CC)

Describes the conduct of a seminar which emphasizes reading, writing, discussion, formal oral presentation, criticism, and idea generation. Concludes that the program satisfactorily meets chemical industrial requirements. (CC)

Describes a hydroponic culture technique suitable for student exercises in biology. This technique of growing plants in nutrient solutions enhances plant growth, and is an excellent way to obtain intact plants with root systems free of soil or other particulate matter. (JR)

Science curriculum for the seventies must be more relevant to peoples lives. Widespread disenchantment observed in public about science and technology can only be resolved if science curriculum places sufficient emphasis on human values and scientific thinking. (PS)

Describes the errors in the sugar-cube experiment related to radioactivity as described in Project Physics course. The discussion considers some of the steps overlooked in the experiment and generalizes the theory beyond the sugar-cube stage. (PS)
