This project is to create a multidisciplinary interactive technology-based problem-solving model for cross-curricular technology transfer. The project objectives are:1. incorporate meaningful technology-based problem solving applications into all science courses by developing innovative curricula, adapting existing resources, and integrating new technologies,2. target unserved and underserved populations, including women and minorities for science success,3. promote multidisciplinary collaborations to strengthen interdisciplinary problem solving as a foundation for new program development,4. create valuable outreach programs for updating teachers' and faculty's technological enhancement, and 5. update skills for non-professional individuals, thereby enabling them to integrate into technical positions in emerging industries. The creation of a multifunctional computer laboratory for intra-and inter-curricular studies is to provide the environment for a faculty to adapt commercially available software, computer-based laboratory interfaces, internet databases, and digital imaging techniques to promote students' exploration, visualization, and creative analysis of complex scientific concepts. Implementation of advanced computer applications are to provide a broader range of strategies to teach creative problem solving. Virtual applications in Astronomy, Biology, Chemistry, Geoscience, and Physics are expected to peak the interest of more students, inspiring some to pursue careers in basic and applied science.

本计画旨在建立一个以跨学科互动技术为基础的问题解决模式，以促进跨学科的技术转移。 项目目标是：1.通过开发创新课程、调整现有资源和整合新技术，将有意义的基于技术的问题解决应用纳入所有科学课程。以未得到服务和服务不足的人群为目标，包括妇女和少数民族，以取得科学成功。促进多学科合作，以加强跨学科问题的解决，作为新项目开发的基础。创造有价值的推广计划，以更新教师和教职员工的技术提高，和5。更新非专业人员的技能，从而使他们能够融入新兴行业的技术岗位。 创建用于课内和课间研究的多功能计算机实验室是为了为教师提供环境，以适应商业软件、基于计算机的实验室界面、互联网数据库和数字成像技术，以促进学生的探索、可视化和创造性分析复杂的科学概念。 实施先进的计算机应用程序是为了提供更广泛的策略，教创造性解决问题。 天文学，生物学，化学，地球科学和物理学的虚拟应用程序预计将达到更多学生的兴趣，激励一些人追求基础和应用科学的职业生涯。
