Joseph W. Vanable DUE 9551922 Purdue Univ Research Fdn FY1995 $ 69,000 West Lafayette, IN 47907 ILI - IP Life Sciences Title: Innovative and Flexible Computer Lab Modules for Large Biology Courses This project provides a stimulating, rigorous, and hands-on laboratory experience by constructing innovative and multifunctional computer lab modules that students in prepharmacy, agriculture, and nursing and allied health fields who require a solid foundation in biological principals would use for data acquisition and analysis, lab extensions, simulations, and delivery of instruction. These Bio LabStations have been developed in the Computer Resource Center for courses taught to biology majors. With some modification of the experiments carried out with them, they can be used for these courses, as well. These Bio LabStations replace several pieces of equipment: physiographs, oscilloscopes, pH meters, and oxygen meters, and their function far surpasses that of this conventional equipment. Although data can be collected with the conventional equipment, the Bio LabStations not only perform this function, but they also permit analysis of data, elaborate upon and extend the data collection process, simulate living systems and processes, deliver instruction, and provide for review and some testing. They have the further advantage of presenting to the students one basic apparatus to be mastered, rather than several. Not having to adjust to entirely new equipment with each new experiment should enable them to focus better on the point of each experiment.

Vanable DUE 9551922普渡大学研究基金1995财政年度$ 69,000西拉斐特，IN 47907 ILI - IP生命科学本项目通过构建创新和多功能的计算机实验室模块，为药学预科、农业、护理和相关健康领域的学生提供刺激、严谨和动手的实验室体验，这些学生需要坚实的生物学原理基础，可以使用这些模块进行数据采集和分析、实验室扩展、模拟和教学。这些生物实验站是在计算机资源中心开发的，用于教授给生物学专业的课程。通过对实验进行一些修改，它们也可以用于这些课程。这些生物实验室站取代了几个设备：生理仪、示波器、pH计和氧气计，它们的功能远远超过了传统设备。虽然可以用传统设备收集数据，但生物实验室站不仅可以执行这一功能，还可以分析数据，详细说明和扩展数据收集过程，模拟生命系统和过程，提供指导，并提供审查和一些测试。它们还有一个更大的好处，就是向学生展示一种需要掌握的基本仪器，而不是几种。不必在每次新实验时都去适应全新的设备，这应该能让他们更好地专注于每次实验的要点。
