Provides an annotated list of books, textbooks, and films on superfluid helium. Also lists research reports/reviews arranged by category, including among others, early history, microscopic understanding, ions in helium, helium in rotation, vortices and quantization, helium films and constricted geometrics, persistence flow, and superfluid helium…

This program produces multiple-choice examinations from a pool of questions created by the user. The output is a printed copy of the exam and an answer key. The program is written in Applesoft BASIC and requires an Apple II Plus computer with 32K, a disk drive, and a printer. (MP)

Describes a course at the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh which includes preparation of library pathfinders, i.e., printed guides to assist users in systematically searching specific subject areas. Undergraduate students in this course are required to prepare pathfinders for library use. Two references are listed. (RAA)

Following a brief introduction, an annotated listing of literature and teaching aids on lasers is presented. Categories include: Background Materials; Historical References; General References and Textbooks; Specialized References; Reviews; Articles; Films; Laser Courses; Equipment, Demonstrations, and Experiments; Laser Safety; and Lasers and…

Listed are classroom resources--films and filmstrips, textbooks, multimedia kits, and cassettes--for social studies. Included in each resource listing are a description of the content emphasis, organization and/or instructional method, objectives, recommendations/evaluations and, in some cases, student evaluations. (KC)

It is suggested that a secondary school vocal or instrumental music director, even one with a limited background in early music, can establish a successful early music consort, but before establishing such a consort, the director should review thoroughly the main historical sources. These sources are listed. (KC)

Books, journal articles, newspapers and magazines, reports, and other references on fund-raising from foundations are listed and annotated. They include reports about individual foundations and groups as well as more general grantsmanship materials and studies of private giving trends. (MSE)

Discusses and simplifies the theory behind Electron Spin Resonance (ESR). Describes applications to radiation chemistry. (CS)

Discusses reactivity of metal ions with the primary products of water radiolysis, hyper-reduced metal ions, zero-valent metal ions, unstable divalent ions from the reduction of bivalent ions, hyper-oxidized metal ions, and metal complexes. (CS)

Discusses the use of steady-state radiation chemistry and pulse radiolysis for the generation of initial free radicals and formation of peroxy radicals in the autoxidation process. Provides information regarding the autoxidation process. Defines autoxidation reactions and antioxidant action. (CS)

Expands the basic concepts regarding the radiation chemistry of simple aqueous systems to more complex, but well defined, organized assemblies. Discusses the differences in behavior in comparison to simple systems. Reviews these techniques: pulse radiolysis, laser flash, photolysis, and steady state irradiation by gamma rays or light. (CS)

Summarizes the technology of the field known as radiation processing, the term used to describe the large scale production or modification of materials by ionizing radiation. (CS)

Describes an interdisciplinary student experiment based upon the radiation effects on polymers, integrating some of the fundamentals of radiation chemistry, polymer chemistry, and material science. Also demonstrates how the information gained in the experiment has direct commercial application in product manufacture or processing. (CS)

Compares two methods for computer generation of tests: question retrieval and question generation. Both techniques are described with specific applications for university teaching. Also evaluates the effects of these methods on student performance. Future developments of computer assisted test construction are also discussed. (CS)

Describes several general high school chemistry activities including: (1) making Christmas glassware, (2) some energy-related activities, (3) some learning activity modules developed by the Unigraph Corporation, and (4) some consumer chemistry activities. (CS)
