The goal of this project is to create a learning environment in which computers are used both as experimental and as instructional tools. The laboratory experiments developed 1) permit students to run virtual experiments through the use of interactive animation, 2) learn to manage and control data acquisition systems, and 3) run simulations of biological, biochemical, and biophysical events. Using Macintosh IIci computers, data acquisition hardware and LabVIEW 2, a unique graphic programming environment that can be used to develop data acquisition programs or simulations, students have the ability to devise innovative experiments directly on the computer. Students given an experimental problem can, by interacting with the computer, control the path of an animated simulation and experimentally derive solutions to the problem.

这个项目的目标是创造一个学习环境， 这些计算机既被用作实验， 教学工具。 开发的实验室实验1） 允许学生通过使用 交互式动画，2）学习管理和控制数据 采集系统，和3）运行生物模拟， 生物化学和生物物理事件。 使用Macintosh IIci 计算机、数据采集硬件和LabVIEW 2， 图形编程环境，可用于开发 数据采集程序或模拟，学生有 能够直接设计创新实验， 电脑 给学生一个实验问题， 与计算机交互，控制动画的路径， 模拟和实验得出的解决方案的问题。
