Undergraduate Faculty Enhancement Workshop in FTNMR

一个为期一周的介绍傅里叶变换核磁共振的研讨会正在为12名教员举行。这些教师来自阿肯色州、俄克拉荷马州、密苏里州、堪萨斯州、内布拉斯加州、伊利诺伊州和爱荷华州等七个州的两年制和四年制院校。正在作出特别努力招收妇女和少数民族参加者。工作坊包括讲座、仪器使用和数据分析。主题涵盖范围从介绍核磁共振理论到脉冲序列和二维核磁共振。参与者使用由NSF-ILI支持购买的JOEL 270 MHZ FT-NMR，获得质子，碳-13，磷-31，DEPT， COSY， HETCOR和其他光谱。每个参与者收到一本手册，其中包含理论，光谱和特定的核磁共振应用，适合在本科实验室使用。参与者将获得现代核磁共振技术的扩展知识，并被鼓励将这些技术引入本科化学课程。1996年11月将在非洲共同体中西部区域会议上举行一次后续会议。将收集、编辑、出版和分发给七个州地区的所有高等教育机构的与会者关于在其机构中使用讲习班信息的报告。

A one week workshop on introductory FT-NMR is being held for twelve faculty members. These faculty come from two and four year institutions in a seven state region including Arkansas, Oklahoma, Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, Illinois, and Iowa. Special efforts are being made to recruit women and minority participants. The workshop consists of lectures, instrument use, and data analysis. Topics covered range from introductory NMR theory to pulse sequences and 2-D NMR. Participants use a JOEL 270 MHZ FT-NMR, purchased with NSF-ILI support, to obtain proton, carbon-13, phosphorous-31, DEPT, COSY, HETCOR, and other spectra. Each participant receives a handbook containing theory, spectra, and specific NMR applications suitable for use in undergraduate laboratories. The participants gain an expanded knowledge of modern NMR techniques and are encouraged to introduce these techniques into the undergraduate chemistry curriculum. A follow-up meeting will be held at the midwest Regional ACS meeting, November 1996. Participants reports on the use of information from this workshop at their institutions will be collected, edited, published and distributed to all institutions of higher education in the seven state region.
