The science department at this small, rural Community College is introducing environmental science-related computer-interfaced instrumentation into relevant science course offerings in its Associate degree programs. The project serves primarily minority and underprivileged college students from the Upper Coastal Plain Region of northeastern North Carolina, providing these individuals with an unprecedented science exposure. Computer-interfaced environmental science experimentation provides opportunities to make precise measurements of chemical and physical processes relevant to environmental changes (e.g., climate, air and water quality, water and soil pH, optimal plant growing conditions, etc.). This project also provides capabilities for monitoring simultaneous experiments, storage and detailed analysis of data, experimental simulations, and student design of experiments. Finally, the revisions to the curriculum this project is making possible provide students with an exposure to science and to computer applications in science, enhancing their long-term ability to perform effectively in an advanced technological society. The grantee institution is matching the NSF award with an equal sum obtained from non-Federal sources.

这所小型乡村社区学院的科学系 介绍与环境科学有关的计算机接口 在其副教授的相关科学课程中加入仪器 学位课程。 该项目主要服务于少数民族和 来自上海岸平原地区的贫困大学生 位于北卡罗来纳州东北部，为这些人提供 前所未有的科学发现 计算机接口环境科学实验 提供了精确测量化学物质的机会， 与环境变化相关的物理过程（例如，气候， 空气和水质，水和土壤pH值，最佳植物生长 条件等）。 该项目还提供了以下功能 监测同时进行的实验、储存和详细分析 数据，实验模拟和学生实验设计。 最后，本项目对课程的修订 可能为学生提供接触科学和计算机的机会 在科学中的应用，提高他们的长期能力， 在一个先进的技术社会中。 受赠机构正在将NSF奖项与同等奖项相匹配 从非联邦来源获得的金额。
