The goal of the program is to enhance the effectiveness of high school physics teachers in their use of the computer in the classroom and laboratory both for instruction and computation. This will be accomplished via two distinct but inter-related activities: * The evaluation of physics software for the use of all physics teachers. * A Teacher Institute for empowering leadership teachers to use the software and achieve full utilization of computers in the teaching of physics. The software evaluation component will provide independent , timely, reliable and comprehensive guides to currently available courseware for high school physics teachers. These reviews will be disseminated by publication in The Physics Teacher and by contributed presentations and workshops given locally and nationally. The institute will provide intensive hands-on activity in the use of the latest Microcomputer Based Laboratory(MBL) interfaces, spreadsheets and sample exercises, and courseware materials for classroom demonstrations and student assignments. Each summer two sessions will be organized with 12 leadership teachers in each. The sessions will be of three weeks duration at the Physics Courseware Laboratory of North Carolina State University. During the following year staff members will make two follow-up visits to the teachers high schools and the following summer the teachers will return to NCSU for two weeks of review and assessment. A total of 48 nationally selected high school teachers will be able to participate in this three year project. During the first and second academic years the leadership teachers will be expected to conduct a total of 4 workshops and to give at least one presentation at a professional meeting on the utility of computers to teach physics. It is expected that a total of about 2000 teachers will receive information about the utility of computers in physics instruction. Cost sharing is equal to 17% of NSF funding requested.

该计划的目标是提高有效性， 高中物理教师在使用计算机时， 教室和实验室都用于教学， 计算 这将通过两个不同的，但 相互关联的活动： * 物理软件的使用评价 所有物理老师的。 * 增强领导能力的教师研究所 教师使用该软件，实现充分 计算机在教学中的应用 物理学 软件评估组件将提供独立的， 及时、可靠和全面的指南， 为高中物理教师提供课件。 这些评论将通过在《纽约时报》 物理老师和贡献的演讲和 在当地和全国举办讲习班。 该研究所将提供密集的实践活动， 使用最新的微机实验室（MBL） 界面、电子表格和示例练习，以及 用于课堂演示的课件材料， 学生作业。 每年夏季将组织两次会议， 领导老师在每个。会议将有三个 在北卡罗来纳大学物理课程实验室学习 卡罗莱纳州立大学。 次年，工作人员 委员会成员将于稍后两次探访教师中学， 学校和下一个夏天，教师将返回 NCSU两周的审查和评估。 共有48 全国选拔的高中教师将能够 参加这个为期三年的项目。在第一和 第二学年的领导教师将是 预计共举办4个工作坊， 在专业会议上至少做一次关于 利用计算机教授物理。预料一道 共有约2000名教师将获得有关 计算机在物理教学中的应用 费用分摊相当于申请的NSF资金的17%。
