Educational Software Development Using Hypertext And Expert System Software Concepts, Siripong Malasri, Roger R. Easson
Educational Software Development Using Hypertext And Expert System Software Concepts, Siripong Malasri, Roger R. Easson
Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science
This paper presents two computer software concepts: hypertext and expert systems; which are useful for educational software development. Good educational software enhances the learning process and offers opportunities for faculty to provide additional materials for independent studies, which would otherwise be impossible, due to the limited time and incredible growing rate of technological progress. The hypertext concept offers the students a non-linear learning style, while the expert system concept provides explanation facilities for students to probe the logic of the systems. Both approaches are extremely useful for educational software. With the proper tools, the courseware can be implemented easily and …
Experimental Testing Program In Elementary Chemistry: A Preliminary Report, Billie G. Broach, Howard L. Hodges
Experimental Testing Program In Elementary Chemistry: A Preliminary Report, Billie G. Broach, Howard L. Hodges
Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science
An experimental testing program is described which utilizes questions that are partly computer composed, in addition to a section composed by the instructor, and a retesting option to the student. Results from a trial of the program for one term indicate that (1) course grades were improved, (2) the student withdrawal failure rate was unaffected, and (3) the employed students took greater advantage of the retest than did the unemployed students.

Chemistry Departments In Predominantly Black Institutions, James O. Wear, Nirmal K. Shastri
Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science
Chemistry programs in 87 predominantly Black institutions were compared by questionnaire survey. Advanced undergraduate courses were offered for chemistry majors by 86% of these schools, but only 28% offered research and independent study for undergraduates. Although there were extremes, most of the faculty taught 15 to 18 contact hours and their median salaries were below the national median. Library support seemed adequate with 1 to 1.5% of the total library materials being chemistry books, texts and reference, and the libraries of most schools had holdings of 15 principal chemistry-related journals. More than 90% of the schools were well-equipped with laboratory …
