Digital Laboratory Enhancement

计算机技术在过去十年中的深刻进步推动了将最新的技术进步教育到每个本科生教育目标的前沿的需要。为了满足这一需求，该项目加强了工程技术(ET)计划的数字实验室设施。其目的是通过提供一个学习和使用可编程逻辑器件(PLD)的环境来丰富本科数字实验室的教学质量，可编程逻辑器件(PLD)是数字电子学的关键进步。通过该项目提供8台个人计算机、1台激光打印机、网络设备、8份Altera设计软件(PLD)和1个编程单元。这种数字实验室设备与大楼现有的10-BaseT以太网络联网，允许每台计算机与激光打印机进行通信。这个项目可以对ET教育产生巨大的影响。它通过使用实验室来提高学生的学习能力。它对K12教育的影响可能会更深。这是通过在底特律公立学校(DPS)系统中针对学生和教师的研讨会来实现的。*

The profound advances in computer technology during the past decade have propelled the need to educate every undergraduate student with the latest enhancements in technology to the forefront of educational objectives. To address this need, this project enhances the digital laboratory facilities of the Engineering Technology (ET) program. The objective is to enrich the quality of undergraduate digital laboratory instruction by providing an environment to conduct learning about, and use of, Programmable Logic Devices (PLDs), a key advance in digital electronics. Eight personal computers, a laser printer, networking equipment, eight copies of ALTERA design software (PLD), and one programming unit are provided through this project. This digital laboratory equipment is networked to the building's existing 10-BaseT Ethernet network, allowing each computer to communicate with the laser printer. This project can have a great impact on ET education. It enhances student learning through laboratory use. Its impact on K 12 education can be even deeper. This is realized through workshops directed to students and teachers in the Detroit Public School (DPS) system. *
