Use of Real-Time NWS Products in Introductory and Intermediate Course

地理系正在购买卫星接收器 和数据显示设备， 地图到气象课程的科学和非- 理科专业 学生们正在利用天气图， 他们的实验室经验的一部分， 每天发生的天气变化。 的意义 该项目是：1）将当前的大气 为学生的学习体验创造条件， 从而让学生直接参与到 课程的主题，2）文件的相关性， 科学对非科学的学生，3）刺激 学生对周围大气行为的好奇心，以及 4)为非理科学生提供机会， 在气象学入门课程中收集和分析数据。

The Department of Geography is purchasing satellite receiving and data display equipment to incorporate real-time weather maps into the meteorology courses for both science and non- science majors. Students are making use of weather maps as part of their laboratory experiences as well as in observing the daily weather variations that occur. The significance of this project is that it: 1) incorporates current atmospheric conditions into the learning experience for the students, thereby allowing the students to become directly involved with the subject matter of the course, 2) documents the relevance of the science to the non-science student, 3) stimulates the curiosity of the students surrounding atmospheric behavior, and 4) provides non-science students with the opportunity to collect and analyze data in an introductory meteorology course.
