Roberts, Nancy with Tim Barclay and Tim Kreutzer, "Modeling Tools for Problem-Solving", 1987
ua435
During the last year, the Technical Education Research Centers (TERC) has been combining microcomputer-based data gathering instruments with model-building software using the system dynamics approach to develop curriculum materials and software for high school students. The microcomputer laboratory aids students in collecting real-time data in such areas as heat, light, sound, motion, and water movement. Model-building helps students develop and test theories to study the data. An integrated software environment is being developed that will allow the data collected to be input directly into the models. In addition, the software will include an icon driven modeling language, algebraic function grapher, and spreadsheet to provide students with several different approaches to expressing model-building and simulation.
