Computerized Laboratories in an Undergraduate Psychology Department

心理学系将升级现有实验室在学习和感知方面的设备，开设认知课程，并进一步促进和拓宽学生自主研究的机会。这项建议支持的实验室和研究活动旨在通过第一手接触来说明心理学的原理和概念，使学生熟悉这些领域的科学方法和工具，并最终发展独立调查所需的技能。正在申请六台微型计算机、六台打印机和两台接口设备。两台计算机、打印机和接口将用于支持实验室的学习，三台计算机和打印机将用于认知和感觉/感知课程。第六台计算机和打印机将专门用于上述课程的学生和正在进行高级论文的学生进行数据分析和准备以及撰写报告。

The psychology department to upgrading equipment in existing laboratories in learning and perception, in a cognition course, and further promoting and broadening the opportunities for independent student research. The laboratories and research activities supported by this proposal are intended to illustrate the principles and concepts of psychology through first hand exposure, to familiarize students with the scientific methodology and instrumentation in these areas, and ultimately to develop the skills necessary for independent investigation. Six microcomputers, six printers, and two interfacing devices are being requested. Two computers, printers, and the interfaces will be used to support laboratories in learning and three computers and printers will be used in cognition and sensation/perception courses. The sixth computer and printer will be devoted to data analysis and preparation and report writing by students enrolled in the above courses and those carrying out a senior thesis.
