Introduction of State-of-the-Art Light Microscopy into Introductory-Level Biology Courses

生物学入门级课程的实验室将 通过获取学生显微镜和视频来改善 系统 显微镜将具有节省时间的功能，如 内置照明和一个机械阶段，这将允许 学生有更多的时间学习材料。 视频系统 将用于投影图像，让所有学生观察 一个标本与此同时 成功的视频记录 演示可以重复查看， 实验室检查。 这将减少挫折感， 入门级的学生，提高他们的知识， 生物结构和过程。 大学将提供 50%配套资金

The laboratories in introductory level biology courses will be improved by the acquisition of student microscopes and a video system. The microscopes will have time-saving features such as built-in illumination and a mechanical stage, which will allow students more time in studying the material. The video system will be used to project images, allowing all students to observe a specimen at the same time. Video recordings of successful demonstrations can be viewed repeatedly and can be used during laboratory examinations. This should decrease frustration of introductory level students and improve their knowledge of biological structures and processes. The university will provide 50% matching funds.
