This project seeks to build a community of practice to create highly interactive, web-based materials for teaching human physiology. The Harvey Project is a collaboration of educators, physiologists, medical professionals, illustrators, Java and JavaScript programmers, instructional designers and web designers. Project participants are donating their time to develop materials for an entire introductory human physiology course which will be made freely available to all educational institutions. The project seeks to integrate the best non-commercial physiology teaching materials now available with new material, including animations, video clips, simulations, 3-D models, interactive problem solving and online performance evaluation. These online materials would not constitute a course by themselves, but would allow a physiology teacher without special Internet skills to develop a complete, customized lecture or distance learning class. Because they are customizable, the Harvey Project lessons could be adapted for undergraduates, medical students, or even high school AP students. They can also be used as part of a lecture or for self-study. Materials which exploit the digital medium fully have been shown to lead to more student involvement in learning and better learning outcomes, but their creation requires a team with diverse skills and thousands of hours of effort. The Harvey Project's participants bring together the necessary skills and are working for free. The model of the Harvey Project is easily generalizable to other disciplines, and may impact the teaching of fields far from physiology.

该项目旨在建立一个实践社区，以创建高度互动的基于网络的人体生理学教学材料。哈维项目是教育家、生理学家、医学专家、插画家、Java和JavaScript程序员、教学设计师和网页设计师的合作项目。项目参与者正在贡献他们的时间为整个人体生理学入门课程编写材料，这些材料将免费提供给所有教育机构。该项目旨在将目前最好的非商业生理学教材与新材料结合起来，包括动画、视频剪辑、模拟、3d模型、交互式问题解决和在线绩效评估。这些在线材料本身不会构成一门课程，但可以让没有特殊互联网技能的生理学老师开发一个完整的、定制的讲座或远程学习课程。由于Harvey Project的课程是可定制的，因此可以针对本科生、医科学生甚至高中AP学生进行调整。它们也可以作为讲座的一部分或用于自学。充分利用数字媒体的材料已被证明可以使更多的学生参与学习并取得更好的学习成果，但它们的创作需要一个拥有不同技能的团队和数千小时的努力。哈维项目的参与者汇集了必要的技能，并免费工作。哈维项目的模式很容易推广到其他学科，并可能影响到生理学以外的其他领域的教学。
