The excitement of working with state-of-the-art equipment is a very important factor in attracting students to scientific careers. Providing that excitement and thereby attracting students to science is the primary goal of this project. Prior to this project, students in our undergraduate laboratories had no access to NMR spectroscopy. The goal of this project is to provide spectrometer to our undergraduate students via a modern two-channel 300 MHz NMR spectrometer with a flow cell probe and sample handler. The laboratory curriculum is invigorated from a newly implemented series of experiments. Undergraduate students in the organic chemistry and inorganic chemistry laboratories have access to NMR spectra of all of their synthesized compounds. Access is provided for physical chemistry laboratory projects and to honors research students. Instruction in the acquisition of their own NMR spectra is provided to students of a newly implemented advanced organic chemistry laboratory and honors individual research. Summative and formative evaluations of this project are being conducted in consultation with the Coordinator of Assessment and Evaluation in the FSU Educational Services Program. The integration of this technology into our laboratory instruction significantly enhances the scientific educational experience of ~300 students each year, 21% of whom are minorities and 55% of whom are women. This project adapts gains from the "Integrated Chemical Instruction and Computation: Local and Distance Learning Evaluation" project (NSF DUE 9751465). The results of this curriculum adaptation and implementation are planned for dissemination via the FSU Department of Chemistry Undergraduate Program WWW page and to national NMR and Chemical Educational conferences.

使用最先进的设备的兴奋是吸引学生从事科学职业的一个非常重要的因素。提供这种刺激，从而吸引学生对科学感兴趣是这个项目的主要目标。在这个项目之前，我们本科实验室的学生没有机会接触核磁共振波谱。该项目的目标是通过配备流动池探头和样品处理机的现代双通道300 MHz核磁共振波谱仪，为我们的本科生提供光谱仪。实验室课程是从新实施的一系列实验中恢复活力的。有机化学和无机化学实验室的本科生可以接触到他们所有合成化合物的核磁共振谱。物理化学实验室项目和荣誉研究型学生都可以进入。指导如何获得他们自己的核磁共振谱提供给一个新实施的高级有机化学实验室的学生，并表彰个人的研究。正在与外国语大学教育服务方案的评估和评价协调员协商，对该项目进行总结性和形成性评估。将这项技术融入我们的实验室教学，大大提高了每年约300名学生的科学教育体验，其中21%是少数民族，55%是女性。该项目采用了“综合化学教学和计算：本地和远程学习评估”项目(美国国家科学基金会，截止日期9751465)。这一课程调整和实施的结果计划通过外国语大学化学系本科生计划WWW页面以及全国核磁共振和化学教育会议进行传播。
