Development of a World Wide Web-Based Textbook on Molecular Simulation: A Dynamic Approach to Integrating Fundamental Concepts & Research Advances into the Chemical Eng. Cur.

EEC 9700809卡明斯 摘要 该奖项资助了一个为期三年的联合研究课程开发（CRCD）计划，题为“开发基于万维网的分子模拟教科书”，在田纳西州诺克斯维尔大学的指导下，博士。卡明斯这个计画的目标是发起一个以WWW为基础的分子模拟“教科书”。 这本书的电子形式是专门存在的，并通过电子浏览器，如Netscape或Microsoft Explorer阅读。 这种电子格式邀请使用许多新的工具，显着提高学习经验，并允许这本书迅速调整，以在分子模拟领域的进展，从而防止其过时。 该奖项资助的工作是一个更广泛的项目的一部分，该项目将分子模拟编织到田纳西-诺克斯维尔大学的本科生和研究生化学工程课程中。这一点很重要，因为分子模拟正在成为化学品制造商和消费者的实用工具。

EEC 9700809 Cummings Abstract This award funds a three year Combined Research-Curriculum Development (CRCD) program, entitled "Development of a World Wide Web Based Textbook on Molecular Simulation," at the University of Tennessee-Knoxville under the direction of Dr. Peter T. Cummings. The goal of this project is to initiate a WWW-based "textbook" on molecular simulation. An electronic form of this book exists exclusively and is read via an electronic browser such as Netscape or Microsoft Explorer. This electronic format invites the use of many novel tools that significantly enhance the learning experience and permits the book to adjust rapidly to advances in the field of molecular simulation, thereby precluding its obsolescence. The work funded by this award is part of a broader project to weave molecular simulation into the undergraduate and graduate chemical engineering curricula at the University of Tennessee-Knoxville. This is important because molecular simulation is emerging as a practical tool of chemical manufacturers and consumers.
