西尔维娅·斯维塔克将于9551562财年在纽约昆士伯勒Cmty Col支付35,000美元，纽约11364 ILI-仪器项目：数学题：昆斯伯勒社区学院数学中心计算机教室开发项目该项目将促进和扩大数学课程改革的实施。目前的目标是为微积分课程改革提供所需的技术支持，并使计算机辅助教学(计算机辅助教学)成为我们的补救计划的替代教学模式之一。微积分的试点项目使用计算机代数系统，如派生和汇聚，已经并正在由教员进行。这项研究的预期结果将是在所有微积分和微积分预科课程中增加一个计算机实验室部分。在试点项目中，学生通过教师开发的计算机作业和项目，以分析、图形和数字的方式积极探索数学概念。在比以往任何时候都更大的程度上，他们已经能够更快、更深入地研究数学理论的方式和原因。我们的目标是将这种指导的好处推广到我们所有的学生。我们的改革目标将通过建立一个计算机教室来实现，这是我们数学学习中心不断发展的一部分。教室将有足够的硬件和软件来扩展创新的教学模式。从我们的试点项目到我们所有的微积分课程，最终到我们所有的其他课程序列。

Sylvia Svitak DUE 9551562 CUNY Queensboro Cmty Col FY1995 $ 35,000 New York, NY 11364 ILI - Instrumentation Project: Mathematics Title: The Mathematics Center Computer Classroom Development Project at Queensborough Community College This project will facilitate and extend the implementation of mathematics curriculum reform. The immediate goals are to provide the technological support required by our calculus curriculum reforms and to make available computer assisted instruction (CAI) as one of the alternative modes of instruction for our remedial programs. Pilot projects in calculus using such computer algebra systems as Derive and Converge have been and are being conducted by the faculty. The expected outcome of this research will be the addition of a computer laboratory component to all of the pre-calculus and calculus courses. Students in the pilot projects have been actively exploring mathematical concepts analytically, graphically and numerically through computer assignments and projects developed by our instructors. To a greater degree than ever before, they have been able to delve sooner and more deeply into the how and why of mathematical theory. Our aim is to extend the benefits of such instruction to all our students. The goals of our reforms will be accomplished through the establishment of a computer classroom as part of the ongoing development of our Mathematics Learning Center. The classroom will have sufficient hardware and software to extend the innovative modes of instruction. from our pilot projects to all our calculus courses and eventually to all our other course sequences.
