The goal of this project is to develop a set of laboratory modules and kits for students to explore microscale fluid behaviors and microfludic devices, and to assess and evaluate the effectiveness of the modules and kits at multiple educational institutions. Ten Microfluidics Laboratory Modules and Kits are being developed and tested in nine existing courses at multiple universities and colleges across the nations. This project addresses the rapidly growing need for microfluidics technology and a trained workforce. The new learning materials developed from this project allow engineering and science students to explore microscale fluid behaviors and microfluidic devices, and provide opportunities for students to apply science and engineering principles to microscale phenomena and compare them with microscale observations.

该项目的目标是开发一套实验室模块和工具包，供学生探索微尺度流体行为和微流体装置，并评估和评价模块和工具包在多个教育机构的有效性。 10个微流体实验室模块和工具包正在开发和测试，在9个现有的课程在多个大学和学院在全国各地。 该项目解决了对微流体技术和训练有素的劳动力的快速增长的需求。该项目开发的新学习材料允许工程和科学学生探索微尺度流体行为和微流体设备，并为学生提供将科学和工程原理应用于微尺度现象并将其与微尺度观察进行比较的机会。
