The goal of this project is to enhance the chemistry curricula through the use of interactive exercises on the World Wide Web. The addition of networked computers complements the recent purchases of an FT-IR instrument (ILI-IP grant 9551254), an FT-NMR instrument (ILI-IP grant 9551330), and a GC-MS instrument (ILI-IP grant 9751604) and is making significant contributions to chemistry education. Incorporating the resources available on the internet, including tutorials on the theory and use of NMR Spectroscopy, Infrared Spectroscopy, Mass Spectrometry, and the study of Crystalline Solids, is enhancing our curriculum by reinforcing lecture topics, upgrading existing experiments, and allowing the introduction of new experiments. The students also engage in molecular modeling using the Spartan program and compare their results with their laboratory data. Additionally, greater access to computers on campus is allowing for more efficient use of the FT-NMR by creating additional opportunities for processing of data. The networked computers are a mix of network ready PCs and Macs.

该项目的目标是通过使用万维网上的交互式练习来加强化学课程。 网络计算机的增加补充了最近购买的FT-IR仪器（ILI-IP补助金9551254），FT-NMR仪器（ILI-IP补助金9551330）和GC-MS仪器（ILI-IP补助金9751604），并为化学教育做出了重大贡献。 在互联网上提供的资源，包括理论和NMR光谱学，红外光谱学，质谱学和结晶固体的研究的使用教程，通过加强讲座主题，升级现有的实验，并允许引入新的实验，增强我们的课程。学生们还使用Spartan程序进行分子建模，并将结果与实验室数据进行比较。此外，更多地使用校园内的计算机，通过创造更多的数据处理机会，可以更有效地使用FT-NMR。联网计算机是网络就绪PC和Mac的混合。
