Physics Pathways - Initial Step is the first phase of a five- year initiative in the Department of Physics at North Carolina State University to improve and extend opportunities for students in lower-division physics courses to learn in a technologically rich environment. This Initial Step is expanding the existing program of teaching problem solving in physics using interactive courseware (Physics 1 and 2) from 50 students per semester to 1,000 students per semester. By networking 50 IBM student workstations and installing a curriculum manager, we are able to offer a one student-one computer learning environment for large service courses. In addition, the expanded PCIC facility is being used twice per semester to assess and monitor the development of basic laboratory skills such as error analysis, significant figures, and curve fitting. The Physics Pathways program, when fully operational, will offer choices to students for how they wish to learn. This Initial Step is helping to initiate the scaling up of both the quality and number of microcomputers available for teaching large numbers of students. The problems being attacked by this project are common to many large universities. If Physics Pathways - Initial Step is successful, the model we are developing will be transferrable to other settings.

物理路径-初始步骤是五个阶段的第一阶段- 北卡罗来纳州物理系的一年计划 州立大学，以改善和扩大的机会， 学习低年级物理课程的学生可以在 技术丰富的环境。 第一步是扩大现有的教学计划， 利用交互式课件解决物理问题 （物理1和2）从每学期50名学生到1000名 学生每学期。 通过联网50名IBM学生 工作站和安装课程管理器，我们能够 提供一个学生一个计算机学习环境， 大型服务课程。 此外，扩建后的PCIC设施每两年使用两次， 学期评估和监测的基本发展 实验室技能，如错误分析，有效数字， 和曲线拟合。 物理路径计划，当全面运作，将 为学生提供他们想要学习的选择。 这 第一步是帮助启动扩大 教学用微型计算机的质量和数量 大量的学生。 这个项目所要解决的问题对许多人来说都是共同的 大型大学。 如果物理路径-初始步骤是 如果成功，我们正在开发的模型将是可转移的 其他设置。
