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的合作项目，获奖号分别为0341203和0340984。该项目正在培养学生当今进入 IT 主导的工作场所所需的两项最有价值的技能：从外部源提取数据并将分析决策模型嵌入到更大系统中的能力。该项目正在制作将信息技术 (IT) 与工业工程和运筹学 (IE/OR) 课程相结合的教育材料。这些材料指导学生完成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，以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在 IE/OR 实践中的使用。教材最具创新性的特点是使用案例研究和团队项目，说明（1）信息系统如何在 IE/OR 实践中出现，以及（2）如何使用 IE/OR 技术构建智能信息系统。正在为十个模块中的每一个模块准备测验和考试材料，以提供学生学习成绩的直接证据。一个行业小组和来自八所大学教授 IE/OR 的教师正在参与评估过程。 这些材料正在通过会议演讲和教师培训研讨会进行传播。这些活动的目标是促进多所大学 IE/OR 系的多个信息系统开发课程的开发。
