9452583 D'Alessandris The main goal of this project is to improve the learning, retention, and application of physics concepts and principles by students enrolled in physics classes at Monroe Community College (MCC). This will be accomplished by developing a comprehensive, four-semester physics laboratory sequence based on the physics education and cognitive research based curriculum of Real-Time Physics. This curriculum relies upon the integration of microcomputers into the laboratory to perform data collection, analysis, and graphing, as well as to construct, execute, and display simulations of physical phenomenon. However, some units of Real-Time Physics are not yet commercially available and, even when completed, Real-Time Physics will not provide a comprehensive laboratory curriculum. Therefore, aspects of other curricula, including Workshop Physics, Tools for Scientific Thinking and Spreadsheet Physics will be integrated with Real-Time Physics into a four-semester laboratory curriculum. This project will encourage students to continue study in physics or engineering, help prepare MCC physics courses for the next century, and to stimulate other colleges, both two-year and four-year, to adopt this approach.

9452583 D'Alessandris该项目的主要目标是提高门罗社区学院（MCC）物理课程学生对物理概念和原理的学习、记忆和应用。这将通过基于实时物理的物理教育和认知研究课程开发一个全面的、四个学期的物理实验室序列来完成。本课程依赖于将微型计算机集成到实验室中进行数据收集、分析和绘图，以及构建、执行和显示物理现象的模拟。然而，实时物理的一些单元尚未商业化，即使完成，实时物理也不会提供全面的实验室课程。因此，其他课程的各个方面，包括工作坊物理、科学思维工具和电子表格物理将与实时物理整合到四个学期的实验课程中。这个项目将鼓励学生继续学习物理或工程，帮助MCC为下个世纪准备物理课程，并激励其他两年制和四年制的大学采用这种方法。
