It teaches you step-by-step how to easily build sophisticated, web-based simulations using Excel, KDCalc, and Flash. Programmers and non-programmers can leverage the intuitive, familiar tools they are comfortable with to design, build, and test high-quality, simulation learning experiences. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=80478 This material is a paper that provides quantitative data that, in many cases, using open source software / free software is a reasonable or even superior approach to using their proprietary competition according to various measures. This paper examines market share, reliability, performance, scalability, security, and total cost of ownership. It also has sections on non-quantitative issues, unnecessary fears, OSS/FS on the desktop, usage reports, other sites providing related information, and ends with some conclusions. An appendix gives more background information about OSS/FS. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=77221 Online explanation of JK Flip Flops http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=768907 Computer Basics and Concepts, ITE 115, covers computer essential components and software.
