This project is improving the undergraduate program in experimental Physiology by introducing the use of video equipment and computer interface devices for data acquisition and analysis. Students are being exposed to three current methodologies: a video-image analysis system, an analog-digital converter system, and an x-y digitizing tablet. Microprocessors are being used to analyze the output from the three systems. The equipment is making it possible to introduce strikingly new laboratory exercises that improve both the accuracy and efficiency of data acqusition and analysis, and that give undergraduates hands-on experience with highly current research and analytical skills. The project is impacting students in eleven courses and in independent student research covering three subdisciplines: Animal Physiology, Plant Physiology, and Physiological Psychology.

该项目通过引入视频设备和计算机接口设备进行数据采集和分析来改进实验生理学本科课程。学生们将接触到三种当前的方法：视频图像分析系统、模数转换系统和X-Y数字化平板电脑。微处理器被用来分析这三个系统的输出。该设备使引入惊人的新的实验室练习成为可能，这些练习提高了数据采集和分析的准确性和效率，并为本科生提供了具有高度现代研究和分析技能的实践经验。该项目正在影响11门课程的学生和覆盖三个子学科的独立学生研究：动物生理学、植物生理学和生理心理学。
