Computer Demonstrations in Undergraduate Mathematics Classes

该项目将支持购买设备， 将使本科数学课程的教师， 将计算机演示融入到他们的讲座中。 是 在仪器和实验室改进项目下得到资助 (ILI)该计划的目标是支持项目， 开发新的或改进的基于仪器的本科实验室 科学、数学或工程学课程。 的 仪器和实验室改进计划提供 为实施所需的仪器提供匹配支持 美国大学本科教学的改进， 高校 特别是，该项目的主要目标是 使教师能够展示更真实的例子， 展示他们所期望的程序和语言的使用 学生使用。 课程的一部分针对的是 本项目的改进是一组课程， 为科学和工程设计的应用重点 少校 受影响的课程包括： 方程，傅立叶分析，线性代数，数值分析， 线性规划、组合数学和数论。

This project will support the purchase of equipment which will enable instructors of undergraduate mathematics courses to integrate computer demonstrations into their lectures. It is being funded under the Instrumentation and Laboratory Improvement (ILI) Program, which has the goal of supporting projects to develop new or improved instrument-based undergraduate laboratory courses in science, mathematics, or engineering. The Instrumentation and Laboratory Improvement Program provides matching support for the instrumentation necessary to implement undergraduate instructional improvements at U.S. colleges and universities. In particular, the main objective of this project is to enable instructors to show more realistic examples and demonstrate the use of the programs and languages they expect their students to use. The part of the curriculum targeted for improvement in this project is a group of courses with an applications emphasis designed for science and engineering majors. The courses to be affected include differential equations, Fourier analysis, linear algebra, numerical analysis, linear programming, combinatorics, and number theory.
