A Computer Laboratory For Quantitative And Scientific Reasoning In Sociology

本项目是利用高速微型计算机和以太网网络开发一个本科实验室。该网络连接了机构学术计算设施网络和NSFNET/Internet。该实验室使该系在入门和高级水平上显著提高其本科课程。此外，还强调了四个主要目标。这些内容包括注入动手实验练习、模拟、实验和研究经验，以数学为基础的社会科学课程，以及项目结果和产品的传播。此外，我们正在作出特别努力，通过机构教员资源网络向传统的黑人大学和其他感兴趣的机构传播我们的结果。

This project is developing an undergraduate laboratory using high speed microcomputers and an ethernet network. The network bridges the institutional Academic Computing Facility Network and the NSFNET/Internet. The laboratory permits the department to significantly enhance its undergraduate curriculum at the introductory and advanced levels. Also, four major objectives are being emphasized. These include infusing content with hands-on laboratory exercises, simulations, experiments, and research experiences, mathematically-based social science courses, and the dissemination of results and products of the project. Also, special efforts are being made to disseminate our results to historically Black colleges and to other interested institutions via the institutional Faculty Resources Network.
