The impact of computers on all rea1ms of Chemistry has been one of the most important factors in the deve10pment of this science during the last years. In recognition of this fact, in 1971, the "First International Conference on Computers in Chemi ca1 Research and Education", was held at DeKa1b, I11inois, USA. A second Conference took p1ace in Ljub1jana, Yugos1avia in 1973 and this third Conference in Caracas, Venezuela, in 1976. The aim of these conferences was to provide a high level forum for the 1eading researchers to exchange information at the frontiers of present day computer app1ications to the different fie1ds of Chemistry. The present "Third International Conference on Computers in Chemica1 Research, Education and Techno10gy", whose proceedings are pub1ished in the present vo1ume, was conceived, by means of aseries of invited 1ectures, as a survey of the present-date state of the art in some of the most relevant areas of computer app1ications in Chemistry.

Chemical education is essential to everybody because it deals with ideas that play major roles in personal, social, and economic decisions. This book is based on three principles: that all aspects of chemical education should be associated with research; that the development of opportunities for chemical education should be both a continuous process and be linked to research; and that the professional development of all those associated with chemical education should make extensive and diverse use of that research. It is intended for: pre-service and practising chemistry teachers and lecturers; chemistry teacher educators; chemical education researchers; the designers and managers of formal chemical curricula; informal chemical educators; authors of textbooks and curriculum support materials; practising chemists and chemical technologists. It addresses: the relation between chemistry and chemical education; curricula for chemical education; teaching and learning about chemical compounds and chemical change; the development of teachers; the development of chemical education as a field of enquiry. This is mainly done in respect of the full range of formal education contexts (schools, universities, vocational colleges) but also in respect of informal education contexts (books, science centres and museums).

The Chemical Sciences Roundtable provides a forum for discussing chemically related issues affecting government, industry and government. The goal is to strengthen the chemical sciences by foster communication among all the important stakeholders. At a recent Roundtable meeting, information technology was identified as an issue of increasing importance to all sectors of the chemical enterprise. This book is the result of a workshop convened to explore this topic.

This book addresses key issues concerning visualization in the teaching and learning of science at any level in educational systems. It is the first book specifically on visualization in science education. The book draws on the insights from cognitive psychology, science, and education, by experts from five countries. It unites these with the practice of science education, particularly the ever-increasing use of computer-managed modelling packages.
