Described is the use of computer graphics terminals to present diagrams relating to physics concepts. (SL)

Describes computer programs and projects designed to assist the chemical researcher in solving problems on-line. Discusses programs that interpret molecular structures, analyze multivariant data, and generate structural isomers of compounds. (MLH)

This study applies social judgment theory and interactive computer graphics to labor-management negotiations. Self-understanding and understanding of one's counterpart were found generally to be poor. Participants reported gaining new insights and indicated that the use of interactive graphics is feasible and desirable. (Authors)

Discusses the use of the computer animation technique to travel through space and time and watch models of astronomical systems in motion. Included is a list of eight computer-generated demonstration films entitled Explorations in Space and Time.'' (CC)

Computer graphics provides a valuable tool for the representation and a better understanding of structures, both small and large. Accurate and rapid construction, manipulation, and plotting of structures, such as macromolecules as complex as hemoglobin, are performed by a collection of computer programs and a time-sharing computer. (21 references)…

Current plotting techniques offer new ways for decisionmakers to look at data via graphs, pictures, maps, and 3-D models. (Author)

Describes phenomena that can be effectively illustrated using microcomputers, techniques used to create these illustrations, and techniques used for displaying them in regular classrooms and over an instructional television network. Also describes microcomputer features required to apply the techniques, providing comments on the suitability of…

Interactive Simulation Language (ISL) is a highly interactive and graphics-oriented language. ISL use in senior design course and introductory system modeling/system behavior course is discussed (including instructional strategies, self-administered instruction, and problem assignment). A description of ISL (including block library and main menu)…

Describes a computer program which allows students to specify rather arbitrary sets of poles and zeros for the transfer function of a linear system. The computer evaluates/plots the systems impulse and step responses individually and displays them in reduced form along with the pole-zero plot. (JN)

Discusses the impact of the presentation of data on the educational effectiveness of computer assisted learning systems, describes some of the existing systems for controlling the display of instructional data on CRTs, and outlines a project undertaken at the University of Western Ontario to exploit the capabilities of microcomputer color…

Reviews the history of Telidon, the Canadian videotex system; describes Telidon's alphageometric method of graphic-information encoding; discusses some experimental applications of the Telidon system; and describes attempts at developing a North American standard for videotex systems. Five figures are included. (JL)

Describes experiences at Duke University in teaching mathematics using computer graphics. Includes comments on the software library, slide shows, assessment of activities, teaching of calculus and differential equations, and various graphics devices for instructional purposes. (JN)

Discusses the use of color computer graphics in teaching computer programing in the data processing department at Florida A and M University. A description of the course of study for data processing majors at the University is included. (JJD)

In introductory mechanics courses it is often necessary to know the geometric properties of some irregular figure. An interactive program (using an Apple II microcomputer) which allows an instructor to determine the geometric properties of an arbitrary figure is described. Includes mathematical formulation, properties of irregular polygons, and…

Reviews the impact of computer graphics on industrial productivity. Details the computer graphics technician curriculum at Milwaukee Area Technical College and the cooperative efforts of business and industry to fund and equip the program. (SK)
