Designed for teachers, this simulation of a criminal trial addresses the workings of the trial system by using the children's story, "The Three Little Pigs." The Big Bad Wolf is put on trial for destroying the pigs' houses. By having students assume roles and use the non-scripted character profiles, the simulation allows information to…

Digital information can be lost for a variety of reasons, including magnetic decay, format and device obsolescence, human or system error, among many others. A solution is to build an archival repository, a system capable of storing and preserving digital objects as technologies and organizations evolve. Designing an archival repository is a…

The purpose of this paper is threefold. First, the description of a research plan for a large-scale computer adaptive testing program migrating from a network to Internet version is presented. The general areas needed in such a research plan include: (1) comparability studies; (2) psychometric analyses; (3) development projects; (4) validity…

This article deals with the basic techniques of teaching entire classes to cooperatively develop simulation games. The first section presents a model which serves as a nucleus for developing the instructional strategies in the second section. (Author/KM)

Goals, course structure, physical and technical problems, the running of a simulation and evaluation of students are described for a game representing the political system of Argentina in a university comparative government course. (Author/KM)

This article describes a program for developing pre- and in-service teachers abilities to anticipate or predict educationally relevant responses of handicapped children through the use of anticipation games which provide simulation of teacher-pupil interactions in classroom situations. (JA)

Discusses a computer-based management game designed to reproduce significant decisions confronting the academic department head in a university. Three simulated situations are given to explain the structure, content, and usefulness of the game. (CC)

Provided are procedures for employment experience simulation in the form of a grocery store game for special teachers to use in vocational training of educable mentally retarded students. (MC)

Evaluation of simulation dialogs for individualized instruction in physics. Fundamental mechanics concepts in force and motion formed the basis of experiments designed to foster understanding of physical concepts, develop graphical skills, and further the student's understanding of scientific inquiry. (Authors/WM)

Presents the preliminary findings of a study of two schools conducted to determine what can and should be done to reduce the schools' energy consumption without affecting their operation. The schools under study are a 40,033 square foot, non-air conditioned elementary school and a 270,085 square foot, partly air conditioned high school. The study…

The optimum number of assistants needed in a specified dental office was determined by simulation. (MU)

An activity requiring students to image the world's population reduced to the size of a small town stimulates understanding of true minority groups, of diverse interests. (JB)
