Interdisciplinary Development of Physiology Experiments, Demonstrations and Manual Using Macintosh Hypercard

小行星9352014 我们建议购买MacPacq数据采集系统用于我们的解剖学和生理学课程。这些系统将使学生能够进行生理记录，并使用跨学科的方法制作实验室指南。实验室记录将包括标准测量，如心电图和肺容量，以及肌肉和神经对电刺激的反应演示。计算机将不仅用于使学生熟悉基本的生理学概念，而且还指导他们操作，显示和解释科学数据。我们计划在生物学学生，技术插图学生和英语系工作人员之间进行合作，为设备制作实验室指南。这些实验指南将作为Hypercard堆栈制作，使学生能够逐步完成设备设置，数据采集和结果报告的过程。将这些实验室指南制作为屏幕手册，并利用多个不同部门的学生和教师的才能，代表了此类设备使用方面令人兴奋的创新。这些设备和实验室指南将在女子数学和科学网络、当地中学和密苏里州社区学院协会年会上进行演示。 ***

9352014 McDonald We propose the purchase of MacPacq data acquisition systems for use in our Anatomy and Physiology courses. These systems will enable students to make physiological recordings and to produce lab guides using a cross-disciplinary approach. The lab recordings will include standard measurements, such as electrocardiograms and lung volumes, and demonstrations of muscle and nerve responses to electrical stimulation.The computers will be used not only to familiarize the students with basic physiology concepts, but also to instruct them in the manipulation, display and interpretation of scientific data. We plan a collaborative effort between the Biology students, Technical Illustration students and English Department staff in the production of lab guides for the equipment. These lab guides will be produced as Hypercard stacks that will allow the students to step through the processes of equipment set-up, data acquisition and reporting of results. Producing these lab guides as an on-screen manual, and utilizing the talents of students and faculty in several different departments represents an exciting innovation in the use of this type of equipment.The equipment and lab guides will be demonstrated at the Women's Math and Science Network, at a local Middle School and at the Missouri Community College Association annual meeting. ***
