In order to educate a skilled work force able to compete in the world market it is necessary to teach in ways vastly different from heretofore. Increasingly complex technology requires a multidimensional understanding of physical processes, algorithms and systems. The linear approach of conventional media is poorly adapted to this purpose. A multimedia and hypermedia environment which can employ animation, interactive graphics and sound annotation embedded in interactive courseware, and compression of the time scale is needed for understanding complex systems. Given the heterogeneous population of students now educated in institutions of higher learning, teaching methods must respond to a variety of backgrounds and needs. Although individual classroom instruction is not feasible with conventional media it is fundamental to a multimedia and hypermedia environment. This project will develop a computer laboratory based multimedia environment (MLUI) for teaching undergraduate courses in multimedia technology, science, engineering, and mathematics, and for undergraduate research. The project consists of installing a multimedia laboratory, offering new courses in multimedia technology, developing multimedia courseware and using it as well as other multimedia courseware to teach interactive courses in the MLUI. Special provisions for the use of the multimedia technology for the disabled are a high priority, for example, touch displays and speech synthesizers for the visually impaired.

为了培养一支能够在竞争中脱颖而出的熟练劳动力， 世界市场，有必要以截然不同的方式进行教学 迄今为止。日益复杂的技术需要 对物理过程的多维理解， 算法和系统。传统的线性方法 媒体很难适应这一目的。多媒体和 超媒体环境可以采用动画、交互式 图形和声音注释嵌入交互式 课件，需要压缩时间尺度， 理解复杂的系统。考虑到异质性 高等院校在校学生人数 学习、教学方法必须应对各种情况 背景和需求。虽然个别教室 使用传统媒体进行教学是不可行的， 是多媒体和超媒体环境的基础。 该项目将开发一个计算机实验室， 本科多媒体教学环境 多媒体技术、科学、工程和 数学和本科研究。项目 包括安装多媒体实验室，提供新的 多媒体技术课程，开发多媒体 多媒体课件及其与其他多媒体课件的结合使用 在MLUI教授互动课程。特别规定 为弱能人士提供多媒体科技服务， 高优先级，例如，触摸显示器和语音 为视障人士设计的合成器。
