The goal of the project, which builds on prior NSF support, is to develop haptics-augmented software activities and Internet-based tutorials and to integrat these tools into undergraduate statics and dynamics engineering courses. Specifically the investigators are (1) developing a full suite of haptics-augmented statics and dynamics activities to complement standard textbooks; (2) evaluating these products in two large engineering schools; (3) developing curricula that integrates these products into statics and dynamics courses; (4) applying educational pedagogy research for experiential inquiry-based learning and implementing a learner-based hypothesis generation and testing procedure to encourage learners to translate tactile responses to their real world causes; and (5) using a design research approach in the evaluation process to make it an integral part of the development process. They are working to commercialize a unique CD-based set of software activities and tutorials that will enable students to change parameters, predict answers, interact with animations, and feel the results through the haptic device. The evaluation effort, under the direction of an experienced, independent evaluator, is examining student work captured on video along with student surveys and focus groups to monitor student learning. The broader impacts will include the dissemination of their products and results, particularly through commercialization and linking the material to successful textbooks.

该项目的目标是基于先前的NSF支持，是开发触觉增强的软件活动和基于Internet的教程，并将这些工具集成到本科静止和动态工程课程中。 具体而言，研究人员（1）开发一套完整的触觉官员静态和动态活动，以补充标准教科书； （2）在两所大型工程学校中评估这些产品； （3）开发将这些产品集成到静态和动态课程中的课程； （4）将教育教育学研究应用于基于经验探究的学习并实施基于学习者的假设生成和测试程序，以鼓励学习者将触觉反应转化为现实世界原因； （5）在评估过程中使用设计研究方法使其成为开发过程不可或缺的一部分。 他们正在努力将基于CD的独特软件活动集和教程进行商业化，以使学生能够更改参数，预测答案，与动画互动，并通过触觉设备感受到结果。 在经验丰富的独立评估者的指导下，评估工作正在研究视频中捕获的学生工作以及学生调查和焦点小组以监视学生学习。更广泛的影响将包括传播其产品和结果，尤其是通过商业化并将材料与成功的教科书联系起来。
