Peer reviewedFuller, Kenneth – Science and Children, 1986
Describes how electronic games can help students of varying abilities in building hypotheses and in designing and conducting experiments. Reviews two simulation programs and provides suggestions for classroom instruction. (ML)
Descriptors: Computer Assisted Instruction, Computer Simulation, Courseware, Ecology
Peer reviewedKidd, N. A. C. – Journal of Biological Education, 1984
Describes an interactive simulation model which can be used to demonstrate population growth with discrete or overlapping populations and the effects of random, constant, or density-dependent mortality. The program listing (for Commodore PET 4032 microcomputer) is included. (Author/DH)
