Mathematics and Statistics Computer Classroom

这个项目正在开发一个计算机教室，其中数学和统计课程结合使用交互式计算机活动。该实验室有三个主要目标：(1)增加当前使用的计算机活动的计算机课堂时间的可访问性；(2)满足数学和统计教师对在其课程中提供此类活动的设施日益增长的需求；(3)促进使用新的软件技术来获取，修改和完善现有的活动，并为数学和统计课程创建新的活动。第三个重点是新推出的Mathwright软件。这是一个高度开发的windows风格的交互式课程称为工作簿的创作工具。Mathwright工作簿具有高质量的图形，动画，声音，数据输入和操作，以及在点和点击设置中的符号操作。Mathwright使教师能够使用交互式作文工具创建这些练习册。该项目为这些练习册提供了一个开发网站，举办了一个关于Mathwright软件的教师研讨会，并提供了一名实验室助理，接受了使用Mathwright和从国家图书馆检索Mathwright活动的培训。他们还举办了一个本地会议，向来自其他机构的教师展示我们的Mathwright作品。

This project is developing a computer classroom in which mathematics and statistics classes meet to use interactive computer activities. The laboratory has three main objectives: (1) to increase the accessibility of computer classroom time for computer activities that are in current use, (2) to meet the increasing demands of mathematics and statistics instructors for facilities to offer these kinds of activities in their courses, and (3) to promote the use of new software technology to acquire, modify, and refine existing activities and to create new activities for mathematics and statistics classes. The third of these is focusing on newly available software called Mathwright. This is an authoring tool for highly developed windows style interactive lessons called workbooks. Mathwright workbooks feature high quality graphics, animation, sound, data entry and manipulation, and symbolic operations in a point and click setting. Mathwright enables the teacher to create these workbooks using an interactive composition facility. The project is providing a development site for these workbooks, holding a faculty workshop on Mathwright software, and providing a laboratory assistant trained to use Mathwright and to retrieve Mathwright activities from the national library. They are also holding a local conference to demonstrate our Mathwright creations for faculty from other institutions.
