We propose to create a next workstation laboratory to complement the two-semester, junior level sequence in electromagnetics required to all electrical engineering majors. Initially, the laboratory would be an optional part of the courses, with perhaps a few homework assignments requiring use of the laboratory. However, the goal would be to eventually integrate the laboratory into the coursework in a more substantive role. To accomplish our objective we have already begun developing an interactive software package. The programs developed are collective know as EM Notebooks. To create the Noteboooks, a powerful software language called Mathematica is used. Mathematica has a feature that can be used to hierarchically structure text, equations, and graphics. Thus, the EM Notebooks contain animated sequences of EM phenomena such as waves propagating in a waveguide, and the user can interactively change parameter, such as frequency, with the moving picture altering in response.

我们建议创建下一个工作站实验室， 两个学期的初级电磁学课程 所有电气工程专业都要求。 最初 实验室将是课程的一个可选部分，也许 一些需要使用实验室的家庭作业。 然而，我们的目标是最终整合实验室 在课程中扮演更重要的角色。 为了实现我们的目标，我们已经开始开发一个 交互式软件包。 开发的程序是 我们称之为EM笔记本。 要创建Notebooks， 强大的软件语言Mathematica。 Mathematica有一个功能，可以用来分层 结构化文本、公式和图形。 因此，EM笔记本 包含电磁现象的动画序列，例如波 在波导中传播，并且用户可以交互地改变 参数，如频率，随着运动画面的改变， 反应
