Physics (13) This project restructures the intermediate optics laboratory and lecture courses at Indiana University-Purdue University Fort Wayne (IPFW). By adopting interactive lecture demonstrations and an interactive engagement approach, students exit the course with a much greater conceptual understanding of optics. In this project we adapt five major elements. In lecture we are using interactive lecture demonstrations and simulations adapted from Physlets and other sources. We are bringing aspects of interactive engagement into both the laboratory and lecture. From a CCLI project recently completed by one of the Co-PIs we are taking the overall approach and laboratory format. Many of the initial laboratories are adapted from Tutorials in Physics. From professional practice we are adapting the process of having students make oral presentations to classmates and department faculty. Also from professional practice we are adapting LabVIEW and optical simulation software to provide students with important work place experience. The laboratory provides 10 weeks of concept and skill building experiments investigating geometric optics, image formation and waves. The remaining five weeks of the laboratory are devoted to more in-depth investigations. Six advanced experiments are being developed that build on the initial part of the program. This grant has a great impact on the department, university (IPFW), and surrounding industrial optics and laser community.

物理（13）本项目重组了印第安纳州普渡大学韦恩堡分校（IPFW）的中级光学实验室和讲座课程。 通过采用互动式讲座演示和互动参与的方法，学生退出课程，对光学有更大的概念性理解。 在这个项目中，我们采用了五个主要元素。 在讲座中，我们将使用来自Physlets和其他来源的交互式讲座演示和模拟。 我们将互动参与的各个方面带入实验室和讲座。 从一个共同项目参与者最近完成的一个社区倡议项目中，我们正在采取总体方法和实验室形式。 许多最初的实验室都是从物理学中的Tuesday改编的。 从专业实践中，我们正在调整让学生向同学和系里的老师做口头报告的过程。 此外，从专业实践中，我们正在调整LabVIEW和光学仿真软件，为学生提供重要的工作场所的经验。 该实验室提供10周的概念和技能建设实验，研究几何光学，图像形成和波。 实验室的其余五周用于更深入的调查。 目前正在开发六个先进的实验，建立在该计划的初始部分。 该补助金对该部门，大学（IPFW）以及周围的工业光学和激光社区产生了很大的影响。
