Stuessy, Carol L.; Rowland, Paul M.
Journal of Computers in Mathematics and Science Teaching, v8 n3 p18-21 Spr 1989
Discusses a microcomputer-based laboratory (MBL) study (n=75) which uses multiple temperature gathering devices (mercury thermometer, digital thermometer, and computer probe) and graphing methods (hand graphs, delayed computer graphs, and real-time graphs). Reports that MBL real-time graphing provides significant increases in graphing skills. (MVL)
