9509135 Marchal This SBIR Phase II project aims to design and implement a prototype of interactive multimedia software to support Ordinary Differential Equation (ODE) courses and evaluate its impact in an ODE laboratory course setting. The proposed software combines mathematical simulation, graphic animation, digital video, and hypermdeia to create an engaging learning environment that builds upon contemporary learning theories of contextual learning and constructivism. The Principal Investigators work with the NSF-funded Consortium for ODE Experiments to (a) identify all required mathematical content elements required to support an introductory ODE course, (b) identify specific topics to support a laboratory-based ODE curriculum, (c) develop software module specifications, (d) identify and develop application-specific software needed to support the modules, (e) implement the software modules, (f) evaluate the prototype in a classroom setting, and (g) provide recommendations for the development of a commercial product. The anticipated benefit of the software is that it provides a convenient and challenging way for students to study and explore differential equations, giving them a bridge between the physical world and mathematics.

这个SBIR第二期项目旨在设计和实现一个交互式多媒体软件的原型，以支持常微分方程（ODE）课程，并评估其在ODE实验室课程设置中的影响。该软件结合了数学模拟、图形动画、数字视频和超媒体，以建立在当代语境学习和建构主义学习理论基础上的引人入胜的学习环境。主要研究人员与nsf资助的ODE实验联盟合作，以(a)确定支持入门ODE课程所需的所有必要数学内容元素，(b)确定支持基于实验室的ODE课程的特定主题，(c)开发软件模块规范，(d)识别和开发支持模块所需的特定应用软件，(e)实现软件模块，(f)在教室环境中评估原型。(g)为商业产品的开发提供建议。该软件的预期好处是，它为学生学习和探索微分方程提供了一种方便而具有挑战性的方式，为他们提供了物理世界和数学之间的桥梁。
