Workshop on the Use of Slides, Videos, and Emerging Computer Technologies in Undergraduate Aquatic Science Education

9550658 Weiler美国湖泊与海洋学学会建议举办一个关于使用新兴计算机技术和水生科学数据库作为本科教学资源的研讨会。这些工具使任何学生都可以访问互联网和适当的软件，无论地理位置如何，都可以通过互联网或CD ROM访问和操作一些特殊的数据库。Mosaic的交互功能将使学生能够以自己选择的方式提出自己的问题和操作数据集，其规模与传统的学生实验室或现场实验是不可能的。这是一种令人兴奋和具有挑战性的新方式，可以向学生介绍科学方法的力量。研讨会将汇集教育工作者和数据库管理人员，讨论本科教学背景下的新兴技术，获得一些现有数据库的实践经验，开发资源指南，目前可在CD ROM和互联网上获得水生科学信息，并就如何最好地收集或增强资源以用于交互式实践本科水生科学教育提出建议。提供本科水产科学教学资料和本科课程幻灯片、视频资料共享设施。该讲习班将与协会年会（1995年6月11日至15日，内华达州里诺）同时举行。

9550658 Weiler The American Society of Limnology and Oceanography proposes to hold a workshop on the use of emerging computer technologies and aquatic science data bases as undergraduate teaching resources. These tools enable any student with access to the internet and the appropriate software, regardless of geographic location, to both access and manipulate some the exceptional data bases presently available through the Internet or on CD ROM. The interactive capability of Mosaic will enable students to ask their own questions and manipulate data sets in ways of their own choosing, and on a scale not possible with traditional student laboratory or field experiments. This is an exciting and challenging new way to introduce students to the power of the scientific method. The workshop will bring together educators and data base managers to discuss the emerging technologies in the context of undergraduate teaching, to obtain hands-on experience with some of the existing data bases, to develop a resource guide aquatic science information presently available on CD ROM and the Internet, and to develop recommendations on how best to assemble or enhance resources for use in interactive hands-on undergraduate aquatic science education. Facilities will also be provided for materials used for undergraduate aquatic science education and for sharing slide and video materials used for undergraduate courses. The workshop, to be held in conjunction with the Society's annual meeting (June 11- 15, 1995 Reno, Nevada).
