Improvement in Computer Aided Instruction

康科迪亚学院计划通过开发涉及计算机和视频技术的综合课程课程，将理科教学转变为面向普通学生、职前教师和理科专业的学生。这一课程的重振将提高普通学生的科学素养，使主修科学的学生与迅速发展的技术同步，并使教师愿意在中小学课堂上使用科学方法。经验过程的计算机化使知识更容易获得，并消除了许多与科学日常活动相关的乏味。在为潜在专业和职前教师开发课程时增加视频互动功能，也将增加科学过程的吸引力，希望能导致更多的人变得具有科学素养。由于计算机数据收集和分析的发展和实施，理科专业的学生和非主修专业的学生之间的互动也应加强科学事业的非科学家的了解，并使科学家对公众的先入为主和局限性敏感。

Concordia College plans to transform the teaching of science to general students, pre-service teachers and science majors by developing integrated course curricula involving computers and video technology. This revitalization of the curriculum will enhance scientific literacy among the general student body, bring science majors in step with the rapidly advancing technologies, and prepare teachers willing to use scientific methodologies in their elementary and secondary classrooms. Computerization of the empirical process makes knowledge much easier to attain and eliminates much of the tedium associated with routine activities in science. The addition of video- interactive capabilities to the development of courses for potential majors and for pre-service teachers will also increase the attractiveness of the scientific process, hopefully resulting in more individuals becoming scientifically literate. The interaction generated between science majors and non-major students as a result of the development and implementation of computer-based data gathering and analysis should also enhance the understanding of non-scientists of the scientific enterprise and sensitize scientists to the preconceptions and limitations of the general public.
