Ewing, Galen W., Ed. – Journal of Chemical Education, 1975
Identifies a trend in analytical chemistry toward greater use of instruments and a need for an understanding of the basic principles involved in instrumentation. This need can be fulfilled using homebuilt equipment; examples are provided in the areas of electrolytic conductance and electronic coulometry. (GS)

Jermann, William H.; Watkins, Melinda G. – COED Transactions, 1980
Described is the use of a general purpose hybrid computer in controlling and monitoring certain experiments on human subjects. In these investigations, researchers produce various sensory stimuli and measure participants' responses as voltage produced at a scalp node. The computer system discussed facilitates implementation of these experiments as…

Smith, Richard B. – 1969
A workable theory of instruction appears to depend upon the development of measurement instruments, which operationally define concepts such as transfer, analysis, synthesis, and evaluation, to make possible empirical investigation of the relationships of methods of instruction and learner variables to the attainment of different types of…

Valverde, Horace H.; Roberts, Ralph E. – 1970
A device called the Student Responder may be used to obtain student responses during programed instruction lectures. In Air Force flying and technical training programs, the device can be used in a dimly-lit or darkened classroom during slide presentations. When multiple-choice questions are projected on the screen, the student responses are…

Overs, Robert P.; Trotter, Ann Beck – 1968
This inventory is designed to classify avocational activities in a systematic manner. It is patterned after the "Dictionary of Occupational Terms," and can be used: (1) to evaluate patterns of activities, (2) to explore avocational activities, (3) to facilitate information retrieval, and (4) to serve as basis for classifying data. The first part…
