跨学科(99)这个项目使创新和非常成功的跨学科科学教育门户网站VisionLearning(http://www.visionlearning.com))从原型到全面实施。愿景学习已通过课堂评估被证明可以为学生提供有效的学习策略，并收到了杰出的同行评价，称赞其有效地使用了创造性和及时的教学方法。视觉学习门户有效地利用互联网的固有优势，使所有学生和教师都可以免费获得跨学科的教学材料。愿景学习成功地整合了战略，专门惠及低收入和少数族裔理科学生。该项目是：a)向我们的图书馆增加72节新课程，这是一组被证明可以促进学习的新颖教学模块；b)充分开发MyClassRoom，这是一个富有想象力的系统，允许教师根据自己的课程目标完全定制VisionLearning界面；c)增强教学与技术领域，这是一个宝贵的教师发展信息中心；d)将项目的良好评估扩大到另外三个不同的机构；e)进一步传播项目，将至少20名教师添加到VisionLearning教师名单中；以及f)扩大出版合作伙伴关系，以确保项目的长期可持续性。

Interdisciplinary (99)This project takes the innovative and highly successful interdisciplinary science education Web portal Visionlearning (http://www.visionlearning.com) from prototype to full implementation. Visionlearning has been proven through classroom evaluation to provide effective learning strategies for students and it has received outstanding peer reviews that have praised its effective use of creative and timely teaching methods. The Visionlearning portal efficiently leverages the inherent strengths of the Internet to make interdisciplinary teaching materials freely available to all students and instructors. Visionlearning has successfully integrated strategies to specifically benefit low income and minority science students. This project is:a) adding 72 new lessons to Our Library, a group of novel teaching modules proven to enhance learning;b) fully developing MyClassroom, an imaginative system that allows faculty to fully customize the Visionlearning interface to their own curricular objectives;c) enhancing the Teaching & Technology area, a valuable clearinghouse for faculty development;d) expanding the robust evaluation of the project to three additional diverse institutions;e) further disseminating the project to add at least 20 instructors to the Visionlearning faculty list; andf) broadening the publishing partnership to ensure the project's long-term sustainability.
