Peer reviewedWilkinson, Ladye K. – Physics Teacher, 1995
Describes the use of the computer software "Graphs and Tracks" a tool for interactive computer instruction, in teaching one-dimensional kinematics concepts and connecting these concepts to their graphical representations. Provides ordering information. (JRH)
Descriptors: Acceleration (Physics), Computer Simulation, Computer Software, Graphs
Peer reviewedAdie, G. – Physics Education, 1998
Explains how the graphing calculator can be used in simulations of physics experiments and how its use for plotting graphs requires a shift in emphasis from obtaining an experimental result to evaluating that result. (DDR)

Peer reviewedRoth, Wolff-Michael – Science Teacher, 1991
Several types of physics activities that use real-world problems to motivate learners, use computers to assist in developing conceptual understandings, connect problem situations to mathematical models, and use the models to analyze other real-world problems are presented. The topics of racing sports, sailing, and damped harmonic oscillations are…

Peer reviewedMintz, Rachel – School Science and Mathematics, 1993
Investigated the effects of studying an ecological system via computer simulation on 14- and 15-year-old students' (n=9) abilities to pose hypotheses; control and manipulate variables; and learn via icon, graph, and table display formats. Working with a simulation encouraged students to think hypothetically and test their hypotheses by controlling…

Peer reviewedWardle, Michael – Mathematics in School, 1984
Some specific uses of microcomputers in mathematics instruction are presented. Included are examples for generating data and patterns, checking, practice of various types, developing understanding, comparing results, simulation of experiments, introducing new ideas, solving problems, and extending into new areas. Brief computer programs are given.…
Descriptors: Algebra, Computer Assisted Instruction, Computer Simulation, Estimation (Mathematics)
Peer reviewedHayward, Roger – Australian Science Teachers Journal, 1996
Describes chemistry software that is part of a balanced educational program. Provides several applications including graphs of various relationships among the elements. Includes a brief historical treatment of the periodic table and compares the traditional historical approach with perspectives gained by manipulating an electronic database. (DDR)
