Engineering-Engineering Technology (58) This is a collaborative project between the University of Florida and Clemson University with award numbers of 0341203 and 0340984, respectively. The project is developing two of the most valuable skills that students need today to enter the IT-dominated workplace; the ability to extract data from external sources and to embed analytical decision models within larger systems. This project is producing educational materials that integrate information technology (IT) with industrial engineering and operations research (IE/OR) curricula. The materials guide guiding students through the process of learning how to develop intelligent information systems, or decision support systems.Ten instructional modules are being prepared to provide instruction on developing decision support systems using databases and spreadsheets and to illustrate the use of decision support systems in the practice of IE/OR. The most innovative feature of the instructional material is the use of case studies and team projects that illustrate (1) how information systems arise in the practice of IE/OR, and (2) how IE/OR techniques can be used to build intelligent information systems.Quiz and examination materials are being prepared for each of the ten modules to provide direct evidence of student achievement of learning. An industry panel and faculty members from eight universities who teach IE/OR are participating in the assessment process. The materials are being disseminated through conference presentations and faculty training workshops. The goal of these activities is to facilitate the development of several information-systems-development courses in the IE/OR departments at multiple universities.

工程-工程技术（58）这是佛罗里达大学和克莱姆森大学之间的合作项目，获奖编号分别为0341203和0340984。该项目正在开发学生今天进入IT主导的工作场所所需的两项最有价值的技能：从外部来源提取数据的能力和在大型系统中嵌入分析决策模型的能力。该项目正在编制将信息技术与工业工程和业务研究课程相结合的教材。这些材料指导学生学习如何开发智能信息系统或决策支持系统的过程。正在准备十个教学模块，提供有关使用数据库和电子表格开发决策支持系统的指导，并说明决策支持系统的使用IE/OR实践。该教材最具创意的特色是采用个案研究和小组项目，说明（1）信息系统如何在IE/OR实践中产生，以及（2）IE/OR技术如何用于构建智能信息系统。我们正在为十个单元中的每个单元准备测验和考试材料，以直接证明学生的学习成绩。一个行业小组和来自八所教授IE/OR的大学的教员正在参与评估过程。 正在通过会议介绍和教员培训讲习班传播这些材料。这些活动的目标是促进多所大学IE/OR部门的多个信息系统开发课程的开发。
