Physics (13) This multi-institutional project is developing novel cyberlearning exercises involving computation for introductory, calculus-based mechanics. The exercises provide students with rich dynamic setting to gain experience with solving a wide variety of mechanics problems and build correct physical intuition by using computation to visualize motion and to model more physically realistic situations (e.g. visualize 3D motion dynamically and calculate a wide range of quantities describing the motion). The exercises are also intended to help students overcome anxieties associated with using computation, thereby reinforcing the importance of computation as a key tool for solving today's science and engineering problems.

物理(13)这个多机构项目正在开发新的网络学习练习，包括入门的、基于微积分的力学计算。这些练习为学生提供了丰富的动态环境，以获得解决各种力学问题的经验，并通过使用计算可视化运动和模拟更真实的物理情况(例如，动态可视化3D运动和计算描述运动的各种量)来建立正确的物理直觉。这些练习还旨在帮助学生克服与使用计算有关的焦虑，从而加强计算作为解决当今科学和工程问题的关键工具的重要性。
