Engineering - Mechanical (56) A proof-of-concept is being undertaken for the development of web-based laboratory modules for statics and mechanics of materials, two foundational courses for Mechanical, Civil, and Biological Engineering students. Two modules are being developed. The first module is a very preliminary experiment using the pressure in a soda can as a demonstration of thin-walled pressure vessel theory. The second module and principal activity of the project focus on the torsion of both engineered and biological materials. This module features web-based instructions which combines audio, text and video of the sample preparation process and the process of conducting the actual experiments. Furthermore, this module also provides data from real tests, which includes data from biological materials that the students download and analyze as part of their laboratory reports. One goal of the project is to develop a web-based laboratory that serves a variety of educational needs. As a consequence, this second module is being developed in consultation with colleagues from several schools including two-year community college. Once developed, the module will be implemented and evaluated at Cornell and at the other schools. The approach to web-based laboratories, which combines web-based instructions with real data, serves as a model across many engineering disciplines. It is also a step towards making web-based instruction more active by requiring substantial analysis by the student in addition to providing visualization and explanation of the processes. The project will have immediate impact on the large number of students who are taking the statics and mechanics of materials classes at Cornell and at other institutions. If successful, the project will lead to a full deployment proposal and to exploration of the commercialization of the laboratory materials. If commercialized, the laboratory materials could impact a larger number of engineering and technology students, since statics and mechanics of materials are taught at many institutions other than the ones involved in the project. Key Words: Web-based laboratory modules, Web-based instructions for statics, Web-based instructions for mechanics of materials

工程-机械（56）正在进行概念验证，以开发基于网络的材料静力学和力学实验室模块，这是机械，土木和生物工程学生的两门基础课程。目前正在开发两个模块。第一个模块是一个非常初步的实验，使用苏打罐的压力作为薄壁压力容器理论的演示。该项目的第二个模块和主要活动侧重于工程材料和生物材料的扭转。该模块的特点是基于网络的指令，结合了样品制备过程和进行实际实验过程的音频，文本和视频。此外，该模块还提供了来自真实的测试的数据，其中包括学生下载和分析作为其实验室报告的一部分的生物材料的数据。该项目的一个目标是开发一个基于网络的实验室，满足各种教育需求。因此，正在与包括两年制社区学院在内的几所学校的同事协商制定第二个模块。一旦开发完成，该模块将在康奈尔大学和其他学校实施和评估。基于网络的实验室的方法将基于网络的指令与真实的数据相结合，可以作为许多工程学科的模型。这也是一个步骤，使基于网络的教学更活跃，除了提供可视化和解释的过程，需要大量的分析，由学生。该项目将立即对康奈尔大学和其他机构的大量学生产生影响，这些学生正在学习材料静力学和力学课程。如果成功，该项目将导致提出全面部署建议，并探索实验室材料的商业化。如果商业化，实验室材料可能会影响到更多的工程和技术学生，因为静力学和材料力学是在许多机构以外的参与项目。关键词：基于网络的实验室模块，基于网络的静力学教学，基于网络的材料力学教学
