Laboratory Improvement For Undergraduate Archaeology

本项目旨在改进和扩展几门课程，这些课程侧重于科学的作用和应用于考古问题的科学方法。考古学专业必修的基础课《考古学科学导论》（Introduction to Sciences in Archaeology），吸引了大部分来自其他非科学学科的学生。多年来，这门课程和其他课程的注册人数大幅增加，更新的设备满足了更大班级的需要。预计该项目还将提高教学水平，并扩大现有课程框架，包括更多的讨论或实验部分。

This project is designed for the improvement and expansion of several courses that focus on the role of sciences and scientific methods as applied to archaeological problems . The primary course, Introduction to Sciences in Archaeology, is required of archaeology majors, but draws the majority of its students from other non-science disciplines. The enrollments in this and other courses have increased substantially over the years and the updated equipment meets the needs of the larger classes. It is also expected that the project will improve the standard of teaching, as well as expand the existing framework of the courses to include additional discussion or laboratory sections.
