In Partial Defense of Calculating Titration Curves Stephen J. Hawkes
Calculating a titration curve is an unnecessarily complicated method of explaining how a buffer works, and equilibrium calculations are grossly over-emphasized in chemistry teaching.

In Partial Defense of Calculating Titration Curves Daniel C. Harris
There are more important subjects than calculating titration curves for a student whose only formal exposure to analytical chemistry will be an introductory course and whose primary interest is likely to be outside of chemistry (such as the life sciences).

Comparisons and Demonstrations of Scientific Calculators Myung-Hoon Kim, Suw-Young Ly, and Tae-Kee Hong
Scientific calculators are compared in terms of their capacities, featuring many advantages of the graphic calculator over simple nongraphic calculators. Applications in this paper include a simulation of acid-base titration curves, and graphic display of a time course of concentrations of reactants and products for a chemical reaction with first-order kinetics.

A Simple Laboratory-Constructed Automatic Titrator Kurt L. Headrick, Terry K. Davies, and Aaron N. Haegele
The construction of a simple automatic titrator is described. The buret is replaced with a metering pump to provide a constant flow of titrant. The output from the pH meter is sent to a recorder via a laboratory- constructed differentiator, allowing the results to be plotted as potential versus time, first or second derivative

Predicting Acid-Base Titration Curves without Calculations Dennis W. Barnum
In this paper a qualitative and systematic method for sketching titration curves is presented. Even the more complex cases such as salts or polyprotic acids and bases are treated just as easily as simple monoprotic acids. Having students predict the shape of titration curves from known equilibrium constants helps to focus attention on the general principles without distraction by the mathematics.

The Gelation of Poly(Vinyl Alcohol) with Na2B4O7 · 10H2O: Killing Slime K. W. McLaughlin, N. K. Wyffels, A. B. Jentz, and M. V. Keenan
The titration of slime with sulfuric acid allows students to examine the relationship between cross-linking, viscosity, and the onset of gelation. This modification to a popular chemistry demonstration produces an interesting chemistry laboratory experiment designed to introduce students to the relationship between molecular structure and the bulk properties of macromolecules.
