This project is improving the learning, retention, understanding, application and appreciation of physics concepts and principles by students enrolled in all introductory physics courses. It is also providing a model of recent technology and curriculum materials for 2-year colleges. This goal is being accomplished by acquiring faster and more powerful computer technology that can update, expand, extend, and broaden the current use of microcomputer and digital video technology in physics. This technology provides quick graphical feedback that makes possible a larger number and variety of experiences, which can motivate and challenge students. Software and hardware is being acquired for a new laboratory of networked microcomputer workstations equipped with high speed digital video capture and laboratory interfaces with appropriate sensors and probes. The workstations also include shared laser printers and a local physics network server. This project is encouraging students to support science by improving their experiences in physics, as well as increasing science literacy. It is helping to prepare students in physics courses for the next century and to stimulate other community colleges to consider adapting these approaches. *

该项目旨在提高所有物理入门课程学生对物理概念和原理的学习、保持、理解、应用和欣赏能力。它还为两年制大学提供了最新技术和课程材料的模型。这一目标是通过获得更快、更强大的计算机技术来实现的，这些计算机技术可以更新、扩展、延伸和扩大微型计算机和数字视频技术在物理学中的当前使用。这项技术提供了快速的图形反馈，使更多和更多样化的体验成为可能，这可以激励和挑战学生。正在为一个新的联网微型计算机工作站实验室购置软件和硬件，这些工作站配备了高速数字视频捕获和带有适当传感器和探头的实验室接口。这些工作站还包括共享激光打印机和一台本地物理网络服务器。这个项目鼓励学生通过改善他们的物理体验来支持科学，以及提高科学素养。它正在帮助学生为下个世纪的物理课程做准备，并鼓励其他社区大学考虑采用这些方法。*
