Zeisler, Marilyn J. – Science Teacher, 1985
Reviews a chem-study experiment in which students weigh and compare equal volumes of gases and enter their data into a microcomputer. Benefits of using the microcomputer include: (1) data table generation; (2) elimination of calculation errors; (3) student conclusions which are meaningful; and (4) efficient grading time for the teacher. (DH)

Levin, Sidney – Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, 1984
Presents the listing (TRS-80) for a computer program which derives the relativistic equation (employing as a model the concept of a moving clock which emits photons at regular intervals) and calculates transformations of time, mass, and length with increasing velocities (Einstein-Lorentz transformations). (JN)
Descriptors: College Science, Computer Software, High Schools, Higher Education
Bollinger, Richard – Classroom Computer Learning, 1984
Presents a computer program which predicts the weather based on student input of such weather data as wind direction and barometric pressure. Also provides procedures for several hands-on, weather-related activities. (JN)

Vacha, T. H. – 1984
The Rockwell AIM 65 is recommended for use in physics laboratories. Among advantages cited are that the basic board can be purchased customized; for example, it can be purchased with or without a printer, power supply, extra memory, and other items. In addition, the computer is basically designed to control equipment and take data from peripheral…
