Article introduces a new concept in teaching with computers by stressing interaction. The computer interacts with the instructor who uses the computer as a management aid. (Author/ML)

Quality education and efficient administration are goals of a districtwide system of computer usage. (Author)

If the computer is to succeed as an educational tool, it is important that all of those involved in education are given the opportunity to use it freely and creatively. (Editor)

The computer is used to explore some worthwhile mathematics in the secondary school classroom. The problems discussed center around Gauss' Existence Theorem for constructible regular polygons. (FL)

The computer as a teaching device and as a locus for scholarship is discussed. Universities must develop policies and procedures for student access to data banks and bibliographic assistance, and courseware must be reviewed, evaluated, selected, and developed. (MLW)

Discusses the potential of microcomputers, indicating that, like an automobile, they can be used without knowing how they operate. Considers the microcomputer role in education, entertainment, telecommunications, and other areas such as artificial intelligence. (JN)

Identifies and discusses specific components of Maria Montessori's educational philosophy and considers what computer based instruction (CBE) might imply for each. Experiences in initiating a CBE program in a first-grade Montessori classroom are also provided. (JN)

This annotated directory of periodicals on computers and computer-related topics is divided into three sections: (1) seven major periodicals designed specifically for teachers who wish to use computers as a classroom aid; (2) 12 general-interest computer periodicals for educators; and (3) 15 additional periodicals for specialized interest. (JL)

Computer-enhanced simulation of models permits students to become subjectively involved in interaction with the computer. A method for developing a computer simulation is described, and three examples of computer simulations are given. (JN)

A multi-phase computer aided instruction (CAI) scheme for Malaysian Secondary Schools and Matriculation Centres attached to local universities is presented as an aid for improving instruction and for solving some problems presently faced by the Malaysian Secondary Education System. Some approaches for successful implementation of a CAI scheme are…

Discusses the use of a microcomputer/mini-floppy disk system by physics students to store and analyze experimental data and exchange messages with the lab instructor. Also discusses other uses, in particular those fostering critical thinking and hypothetico-deductive reasoning. (Author/SK)
