The purpose of this study was to explore how adult users interact and learn during a computer-based simulation given visual and verbal forms of feedback coupled with embedded elaborations of the content. A total of 52 college students interacted with a computer-based simulation of Newton's laws of motion in which they had control over the motion…

Peer reviewedRisley, John S. – Physics Teacher, 1983
Describes computer program (available on diskette for Apple IIe/II-plus, Commodore PET/CBM, or Commodore 64) providing drill/practice on concepts of electric charge, electric current, and electric potential difference. A second diskette provides a test of fifteen multiple-choice questions, with option to print score and areas of weakness. (JM)

Peer reviewedBirk, James P., Ed. – Journal of Chemical Education, 1989
Describes two computer programs for chemistry: (1) "A Microcomputer Simulation of Fractal Electrodeposition" (provides for the study of fractal aggregrates, BASIC 4.0); and (2) "Counters on Grids" (a game to illustrate the distribution of energy). Notes the programs are available from the authors. (MVL)
