Five innovative approaches to library service are discussed: CAI Experiment, Operation Whistle Stop, Mailbox Library, Read to Me Club, and Family Forums. (7 references) (SJ)

Describes in detail a versatile interactive computer program used to teach chemical instrumentation. The data generated by students is stored indefinitely and is available to instructors. Student reactions were favorable to this method. (PS)

Calculus is overemphasized in elementary physics courses at the expense of other types of mathematical reasoning, especially modern algebra and numerical methods. Discusses approaches to several problems in physics using either a time-sharing computer terminal or symmetry arguments to solve problems at a level appropriate for liberal arts…

Comments on the conclusions of the Carnegie Commission on Higher Education's report, The Fourth Revolution: Instructional Technology in Higher Education,'' and advocates effort in exploiting the new technology and in assessing the possible adverse effects. (AL)

Describes a computer program that plots a solid" representation of molecular orbital charge density which can be used to analyze wave functions of molecules. Illustrated with diagrams for formaldehyde. (AL)

A new philosophy in education has arisen. Basically, it embraces the belief that during the years between birth to six, children can learn more than at any other time in their lives. (CK)

Describes the development of an autonomous computer-Assisted-Instruction general physics course for liberal-arts students at Florida State University. The course utilizes an IBM 1500 Instructional System to guide the student through a self-paced program of textbook reading assignments and homework problems, audiotaped lectures, PSSC movies, and…

Provides a brief overview of the educational technology research effort at the Naval Academy, including a discussion of two computer-assisted instruction projects, and examines three techniques that employ teletype remote time-sharing computer terminals for instruction. (DE)
