Molyneux-Hodgson, Susan; Mochon, Simon – 1997
This paper is concerned with the role of spreadsheets as a tool for the development of mathematical models in science, one aspect of a collaborative project which worked with two groups of pre-university students from Mexico and the United Kingdom. The purpose of the modeling activities designed was to engage students in creating an…

Laughbaum, Edward D. – 2000
Hand-held data collection technology allows for access to real-world data collection--at any other time and almost any place. Is the use of data and its collection desirable to the mathematical learning process? The answer is a resounding yes! Not only can significant mathematical ideas be taught in the process; colleagues are also helped in the…

Dean, Peter G. – Programmed Learning & Educational Technology, 1973
There are many educational situations where the student learns by using a model and we are beginning to explore the benefits of using an interactive computer to give a greater understanding of the relationship between the model and the real situation, and also of the real situation. Article gives a broad introduction to applications in the field…

Carss, Brian W. – Journal of Educational Administration, 1973
The proposed model can be likened to a moving least squares'' model. It uses a data search procedure in which the intent is to evaluate a number of variables substantively, rather than in terms of formal statistical procedures. (Author)

Karp, Laenu A. G. – Journal of Experimental Education, 1972
To reduce the cost of in-the-school experiment, this study, which is an attempt to quantify redundancy in a learning situation, was carried out using a numerical procedure. The variables include student I.Q., lesson time, wasted time, teacher experience, and redundancy. (Author/CB)
