Chemistry (12)General Chemistry laboratories often consist of traditional experiments with fill-in-the-blank data sheets. Acquisition of 16 computers, each interfaced to a set of Vernier data acquisition probes, will up-grade the General Chemistry laboratories with modern instrumentation which will enable all General Chemistry students to focus on the discovery of critical concepts and the interpretation of data rather than on mathematical algorithms and data collection.The goals of the project are:1. to increase student interest in chemistry;2. to expose students to modern equipment and techniques at the General Chemistry level; and3. to improve student understanding of concepts and develop critical thinking skills. Four courses are currently taught at the General Chemistry level: Chemistry 1040 -Environmental Chemistry, for non-science majors; Chemistry 1140 - Introduction to General and Organic Chemistry, for allied health majors; and Chemistry 1145/1146 - Introduction to General Chemistry, for science majors.This diverse group of students, representing nearly every academic department on campus and totaling more than 1000 students for the last academic year, will benefit from early exposure to instrumentation and the new focus in the laboratory portion of the General Chemistry courses.

化学 (12) 普通化学实验室通常由带有填空数据表的传统实验组成。购买 16 台计算机，每台计算机连接一组游标数据采集探针，将用现代仪器升级普通化学实验室，这将使所有普通化学学生能够专注于关键概念的发现和数据的解释，而不是数学算法和数据收集。该项目的目标是：1。提高学生对化学的兴趣；2．让学生接触普通化学水平的现代设备和技术；和3。提高学生对概念的理解并培养批判性思维能力。目前在普通化学级别教授四门课程：化学 1040 - 环境化学，适用于非科学专业；化学 1140 - 普通化学和有机化学简介，适用于联合健康专业；和化学 1145/1146 - 科学专业的普通化学简介。这个多元化的学生群体几乎代表了校园的每个学术部门，上学年共有 1000 多名学生，他们将受益于早期接触仪器和普通化学课程实验室部分的新重点。
