A Guide to Teaching About Computers In Secondary Schools.
Spencer, Donald D.
Teachers and teacher-trainees are provided with comprehensive information about how to use computers in secondary school education. The book covers planning, content and methodology and can be used as a text for methods courses in computer science or as an in-depth supplement to texts in mathematics methods. Part I deals with computer science in the secondary school curriculum and describes how computers are used as problem-solving tools in algebra, geometry, chemistry, trigonometry, physics and junior high mathematics. Part II constitutes the heart of the book, treating methods of teaching computer science. The third and final section discusses school administrative uses of the computer, including class scheduling, automatic test scoring, attendance accounting and other similar tasks. (Author/PB)
