We will provide instruments in a new 3600-square-foot teaching laboratory located in the Department of Psychology at Carnegie Mellon University, in order to develop state-of-the-art facilities for the teaching of research methods in psychology. The educational process will occur both in formal classes, largely conducted in a new classroom facility, and in individual student projects, conducted in independent-study rooms within the same area. Our model is for students to take courses in the teaching laboratory that will prepare them for subsequent independent work. Instrumentation will comprise both software and hardware. A principal goal of the planned curriculum development is to enhance the department's research methods courses, which are a cornerstone of our undergraduate program. We currently teach research methods in cognitive psychology, developmental psychology, and social health psychology. New instrumentation will greatly improve those courses and allow us to add a methods course in cognitive neuroscience. Other curricular developments will occur in courses utilizing brain images, courses teaching computational methods, and faculty-supervised independent research projects. Course materials and tools that are developed will be disseminated over the internet, as a model for the application of particular tools to teaching of research methods. A Web site will be created to publicize results from classroom curricular development and, when appropriate, tools developed in student projects. The site will provide information about each methods course, including the syllabus, assignments that use the instrumentation (software and hardware), and faculty-developed tutorials for using the instruments. Local and national outcomes will be assessed.

我们将在位于卡内基梅隆大学心理学系的一个新的3600平方英尺的教学实验室提供仪器，以发展最先进的设施，用于心理学研究方法的教学。教育过程将发生在正式班级，主要是在一个新的教室设施进行，并在个别学生的项目，在同一地区的独立学习室进行。 我们的模式是让学生在教学实验室参加课程，为他们随后的独立工作做好准备。仪器将包括软件和硬件。计划的课程开发的主要目标是提高部门的研究方法课程，这是我们的本科课程的基石。 我们目前教授认知心理学，发展心理学和社会健康心理学的研究方法。新的仪器将大大改善这些课程，并允许我们增加一个认知神经科学的方法课程。其他课程的发展将发生在利用大脑图像的课程，课程教学计算方法，以及教师监督的独立研究项目。开发的课程材料和工具将通过互联网传播，作为将特定工具应用于研究方法教学的模式。 将建立一个网站，公布课堂课程开发的结果，并酌情公布学生项目开发的工具。该网站将提供有关每个方法课程的信息，包括教学大纲，使用仪器（软件和硬件）的作业，以及教师开发的使用仪器的教程。将评估地方和国家成果。
