With the explosion of digital technologies in recent years,computer simulation and animation have drawn great interest as a tool to teach and learnDynamics. The concepts and problem-solving processes are presented in a dynamic environmentthat allows interactivity. Students can observe and interact with computer representations ofphysical phenomena, and develop deeper understanding of critical concepts.

Technology for commercial extraction of oil from seedis well developed. Processes are largely mechanical andinvolve types of equipment familiar to farm people., so on-farm production of the oil is conceivable. A secondsuggested concept is to locate processing plants ascooperative or privately-owned businesses in communitiesclose to the region where the oil will be used.

In spite ofthis disagreement, there remains much that can be learned from this literature about howwidespread these misconceptions are and how persistent they are, even under what isgenerally considered “good” instruction. Although these studies list many student mis-conceptions, none offer good, reliable, valid assessment instruments that can be used byinstructors in a “production” mode to judge the adequacy of their instruction.One of the significant hindrances to reform in science, technology, engineering and math-ematics (STEM
