A sample of supplementary materials, grouped according to media format into real materials, multimedia materials, paperbacks, games, and simulations to enrich the new social studies curriculum, are identified in the resource guide. The article concludes with a list of sources of supplementary materials, and an abbreviated games and simulations…

This article suggests that simulation models would serve as useful tools for developing and using social indicators in the policymaking process. One such model -- STAPOL-- is described, and current and future applications for this type of simulation are discussed. (Author/JH)

Describes simulated chemistry experiments programed into a Wang 360 programable calculator. Gives data on a sample titration simulation. (TS)

Increased use of analog and digital computer simulations by high school students with a broad range of backgrounds is largely due to introduction of Engineering Concepts Curriculum Project (ECCP) into schools. Future expansion to a wide variety of interdisciplinary problems appears promising. Examples of simulations are presented. (DF)

Briefly describes hardware and software requirements for a computer based learning system. The methods used in various systems are reviewed briefly. (TS)

Discusses the use of a set of computer programs (FORTRAN IV) in an introductory mechanics course for science majors. One laboratory activity is described for determining the coefficient of restitution of a glider on an air track. A student evaluation for the lab is included in the appendix. (Author/TS)

Experiments are designed with application to phenomena of the real world for use in a third-quarter introductory college physics course in wave motion, sound, and light. The computer is used to process and analyze experimental data and to extend experimental observations through simulation. (Author/TS)

Suggestions are offered providing for job observation of employees in an office, a study of business forms, actual work experience, writing behavioral objectives, and simulation. (MU)
