I take this opportunity to thank Dr. Belland, my advisor, for introducing as well as guiding me in visualization research. I am also grateful for his kind advice on my health. I would not have understood fully nor realized the importance of gender issues in educational technology without the friendship and guidance of Dr. Damarin. I am truly in her debt. I am especially grateful to Dr. Taylor for his kindness and willingness to be on my committee. I want to acknowledge Dr. Douglas H. Macbeth's assistance during the early stages of my research. I sincerely thank the Graduate School for supporting this research with a dissertation award.

  • Discovered Attacks #Chessathome
    Lesson 17: Discovered Attacks Discovered Check If the White knight on e5 magically vanished, Black would be in check from the White queen on e2. Let’s try to find a good move for that knight, knowing that on their next move Black will have to escape the queen check. Suppose White moves the knight to g6. Here it’s attacked by two pawns. However, Black cannot capture the knight. They must block the queen check first. White is then able to use the knight to capture the Black rook on h8. Even better, suppose White moves the knight to c6. Again, Black must block the queen check. The White knight can then capture the Black queen. When a piece moves to uncover a check from a second piece, it’s called a DISCOVERED CHECK. Puzzle Corner How can White use a discovered check to win material? #ChessatHome www.chessinschools.co.uk Discovered Attack This time White wishes his bishop on d3 would disappear. They would then be able to use their queen to capture the undefended Black queen on d4. White moves the White bishop to b5 (check), uncovering the attack on the Black queen. Black would love to move or defend their queen but before doing so must escape the bishop check. This gives White the move they need to capture the Black queen. When a player moves a piece to uncover an attack from a second piece, it’s called a DISCOVERED ATTACK. Double Attacks Grandmaster Test You now know all the dou- This puzzle has ble attacks in chess.

  • Opening Idea 3: the Knight and Bishop
    OPENING IDEA 3: THE KNIGHT AND BISHOP ATTACK If you play your knight to f3 and your bishop to c4 at the start of the game you’ll often have the chance to go for a quick attack on f7 by moving your knight to g5. Is it a good idea or a bad idea? The answer is that it all depends. Going back to these moves: 1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bc4 Bc5 4. d3 Nf6 5. Nc3 d6 You’ll remember we looked at Bg5 here. You might have asked yourself why we didn’t play… 6. Ng5 instead? Here’s the position. It looks tempting, doesn’t it. You’re threatening Nxf7 with a FORK which, if your opponent doesn’t notice, will win a rook. But playing for traps like this isn’t a good idea. You must always assume that your opponent is going to find the best reply. Here, it’s easy for Black to stop White’s threat comfortably. The best move is… 6… 0-0 You’ll remember that this was not a good move after 6. Bg5. But against Ng5 it’s the only good move! Chess is hard. Even a very slight difference in the position can make a very big difference to the best move. If you’re White you might be tempted to continue with… 7. Bxf7+ Rxf7 8. Nxf7 Kxf7 … reaching this position: Now you might think this is good for White because Black’s king seems to be in trouble. This is not the case, though.
