Controlling Light 1.2.1 - It’s no wonder the camera controls for exposure
confuse the beginning photographer. Consider the scales that are
used-shutter speeds are based on the number 2, doubling or halving the
numbers involved; while ƒ-stops are based on the square root of 2. The
third component in exposure, ISO, is again based on 2, but this time
divided in segments of thirds. Providing information on handling the camera
controls for exposure clearly and succinctly is necessary to reduce the
students’ confusion. Computer generated graphics offer such an opportunity
through simulation, animation, and interactive presentation in the
classroom. For just that, check out these two HyperCard stacks.

answer before one of the bugs disappears under its picture frame. If the
wrong bug is swatted, the other three keep crawling, and give the student
an extra chance. In the other variation, the student pops the bubble under
the correct answer instead of swatting a bug. This is a HyperCard game.

Flashcards 2.0 - FlashCards by Jeff Stetekluh drills addition, subtraction,
multiplication and division, 100 cards at a time, letting you set time
limits, and which tables to use. If the student enters the wrong answer or
takes too long, the program beeps. It keeps track of the problems the
student misses so they can be retested. You can set the tables to work
with, and satisfactory and maximum time allowed. And if you miss a problem,
you immediately get the answer. It's not a flashy program, but much better
than using (or making) paper flash cards. Any child will benefit from the
practice. The author wants a postcard from you if you like the program.

cross-sections. Foil can generate NACA 4 and 5 digit airfoils, as well as

thickness distribution added to a camber line. The camber line is the line
equally distant from both the upper and lower surfaces. The camber line
determines the "curvature". This version adds airfoil comparision, the scan
method is finished, and the hi-res printing works correctly for any airfoil
chord. It should work on all Macs. Several new airfoils have been included
from various sources.

simultaneously engage the student in a way they might not otherwise be

designed to provide collaborative support to the intermediate and beginning

Description:
Law HTB 2.0 L1 - Law can be defined broadly as a system of standards and
rules of civil society: standards of human conduct that impose obligations
and grant corresponding rights, and institutional rules regarding the
ascertainment, creation, modification, and enforcement of these standards.
The question "What is law?" has elicited a myriad of answers throughout
human history, ranging from the Old Testament's assertion of law as the
will of God to the thesis of Karl MARX and Friedrich ENGELS that law is an
expression of class ideology. For more information, read the contents of

Mac Cellular Automata - What is cellular automata and why do we need it?
Wentian Li says that cellular automata are simple models to simulate
complex behaviors of many degrees of freedom dynamical systems. Let me
preface my next statement by saying that although we use the word simple, I
am only scratching the surface of the field of cellular automata study. In
laymen terms, it means the use of simple mathematical rules to simulate
things that might occur at the cellular level. For the purpose of keeping
the program simple, I am only going to look at one-dimensional cellular
automata. There are of course, two and three-dimensional cellular automata
but I won’t get into it. Read the docs first!

to fit linear, polynomial and logarithmic curves to data, but most packages
don’t let you specify your own equation. However MacCurveFit allows you to
fit almost any equation you choose. The program also lets you directly
manipulate the coefficients or constrain them to chosen values. It is very
flexible in this regard and gives you control over which coefficients will
be optimized and even which mathematical algorithm will be used.

of megabytes of information. Moreover, they are non–volatile, that is, they
retain this information even when power is turned off. But the Central

semiconductors. This is your RAM, Random Access Memory. Find out more about

ProteinSynthesisCartoon1.2 - This color cartoon (movie) was made to show
protein synthesis as a dynamic process. I show it as a visual aid to a
lecture on protein synthesis. By the time they see this cartoon, my
students have had lectures on "The Central Dogma" and on "Transcription."
Thus, the cartoon assumes some previous knowledge and is designed to be
accompanied by considerable professorial chatter. Nevertheless, some of my
students have found it useful for private study. Please feel free to use it
yourself, if you think it might make the process of protein synthesis more
accessible to your students. Comes with Cineplayer to play the movie.

very little) balloon help in case you get stuck (and have system 7).

Description:
WordFamilySpell1.0Demo - This software grew out of a desire for greater
teacher input and control in the construction of spelling worksheets and
activities. I wanted to be able to customize my spelling program for my
students. This approach, I believe, reflects an intelligent way to select
words and place them in activities that make sense. The program makes the
creation of wordlists and activities for the whole class, small groups, or
individuals much easier and more effective. The Planner is a simple tool.
It will not prepare your spelling worksheets for you, but, rather, with
you. It has been designed to obtain maximum flexibility rather than
standardized plans. Try it! This is a limited demo version.

Description:
XFunctions 2.2 - XFunctions is a general-purpose program for playing
with mathematical functions. It is not meant for use in scientific analysis
or for making presentation-type graphs and charts. It was written primarily
to help students learn mathematics. A major goal in writing the program was
to make it as easy as possible to use, so that students can concentrate on
learning about mathematics, rather than learning about computers. It is
also fun just to play with (at least if you are mathematically inclined).

Description:
XLogicCircuits 1.01 - The program xLogicCircuits allows you to
construct (rather idealized) circuits made up of AND, OR, and NOT gates.
Circuits with feedback loops are alowed, so that you can construct memory
elements such as flip-flops. You can save the circuits as files. These
files can later be used as subcircuits in circuits created with the
program. A number of sample files are included on this disk. Because of the
way the program is written, circuits created on a large screen cannot be
displayed on a smaller screen. I have included sample files for both large
and small screens.
