Joint Publications Research Service, Washington, DC. – 1963
IN THIS COLLECTION OF THREE ARTICLES, THESE TOPICS ARE COVERED--FOREIGN LANGUAGE INSTRUCTION, TEACHING ALGORITHMS, AND LITERATURE ON PROGRAMED TEACHING. IN THE FIRST STUDY, PROGRAMED LANGUAGE EXERCISES WERE GIVEN IN LANGUAGE LABORATORIES TO HIGH LANGUAGE ABILITY STUDENTS TO TEST THEIR SKILL AT INDEPENDENT WORK. ALTHOUGH THE SMALL EXPERIMENTAL AND…

Borko, Harold; And Others – 1968
Experiments were performed to determine the feasibility of using ALCAPP as one form of on-line dialogue. Assuming the ALCAPP (Automatic List Classification and Profile Production) system is in an on-line mode, investigations of those parameters which could affect its stability and reliability were conducted. Fifty-two full test documents were used…

Connelly, Edward M.; And Others – 1974
This report documents the theory, structure, and implementation of a performance processor (written in FORTRAN IV) that can accept performance demonstration data representing various levels of operator's skill and, under user control, analyze data to provide candidate performance measures and validation test results. The processor accepts two…

Thompson, Russ; Fuller, Albert – 1972
This teacher guide is part of the materials prepared for an individualized program for ninth-grade algebra and basic mathematics students. Materials written for the program are to be used with audiovisual lessons recorded on tape cassettes. For an evaluation of the program, see ED 086 545. In this guide, the teacher is provided with objectives for…

Gaslin, William L. – 1974
This paper reports the results of a ten-week study investigating the use of electronic calculators to perform basic operations with rational numbers in ninth-grade mathematics classes. In all, six classes and 101 students were involved. A short literature review is given and three treatments are described. Dependent variables were five mastery…

Burtnyk, W. A. – 1972
This paper describes the method used by Tracz and Burtnyk for the estimation of future salary schedules in the Ontario secondary school system. The application of the algorithm to the Ontario secondary school system predicts a possible breakdown in the fixed step salary schedule at about 1980. This situation results primarily because of the…

Simon, Dorothea P.; Simon, Herbert A. – 1972
This paper distinguishes several ways in which phonemic information might be employed in spelling; examines some empirical data on the consequences of using these information sources; formulates hypotheses about the underlying processes involved; and suggests possible implications for the teaching (and learning) of spelling. Included are tables of…

Burrows, J. K. – 1976
Research on error patterns associated with whole number computation is reviewed. Details of the results of some of the individual studies cited are given in the appendices. In Appendix A, 33 addition errors, 27 subtraction errors, 41 multiplication errors, and 41 division errors are identified, and the frequency of these errors made by 352…

Wiles, Clyde – 1976
Two questions were investigated in this study: (1) How did the computational proficiency of sixth graders who had one year's experience with Developing Mathematical Processes (DMP) materials compare with an equivalent group of students who used the usual textbook program; and (2) What occurs when sixth graders study algorithms as sequences of rule…

King, Margaret – 1976
The first section of this course on programming introduces LISP as a programming language designed to do symbol manipulation, with consequent prevalence in auto-instructional (AI) work. A programming language specifies in its description a number of primitive operations which the computer knows how to perform. An algorithm is the set of…

Givan, Betty; Karr, Rosemary – Mathematics and Computer Education, 1988
The author presents two examples of lattice multiplication followed by a computer algorithm to perform this multiplication. The algorithm is given in psuedocode but could easily be given in Pascal. (PK)

Atkins, John; Geist, Robert – College Mathematics Journal, 1987
The Fibonacci Sequence describes a vast array of phenomena from nature. Computer scientists have discovered and used many algorithms which can be classified as applications of Fibonacci's sequence. In this article, several of these applications are considered. (PK)
