The addition of eye trackers into laboratories at two institutions introduces this type of instrumentation into a broad range of psychology courses, class-associated laboratory sections, and faculty research. The project exposes a wide range of undergraduate students and faculty to state-of-the-art eye movement research techniques in five areas of psychology, linguistics, biological neuroscience, and computer science. Recent developments in video-based eye trackers are revolutionizing the ability of researchers to precisely determine where a participant is looking as a means to investigate aspects of human cognitive processing. As eye tracking technology continues to become more powerful, portable, and affordable, it has become a standard instrument for psychological science. The collaboration between Macalester College and Augsburg College reaches a diverse student population and provides another tool in the methodological arsenals available to faculty to integrate eye movement research techniques into on-going courses and laboratories. Through faculty enhancement activities, the project encourages interdisciplinary research among colleagues at other neighboring institutions along with introducing the public to eye movement science through museum-based outreach activities. As eye tracking research becomes more common in behavioral science, students and faculty mastering the methodology become more informed consumers and producers of eye movement research and educational activities.

在两所机构的实验室中增加了眼动仪，将这种类型的仪器引入了广泛的心理学课程，班级相关的实验室部分和教师研究。该项目向广大本科生和教师展示了心理学、语言学、生物神经科学和计算机科学五个领域最先进的眼动研究技术。基于视频的眼动仪的最新发展正在彻底改变研究人员的能力，使他们能够精确地确定参与者在看什么，从而研究人类认知过程的各个方面。随着眼动追踪技术变得越来越强大、便携和廉价，它已经成为心理科学的标准工具。麦卡莱斯特学院和奥格斯堡学院之间的合作覆盖了不同的学生群体，并为教师提供了另一种方法工具，可以将眼动研究技术整合到正在进行的课程和实验室中。通过教师加强活动，该项目鼓励其他邻近机构的同事进行跨学科研究，并通过以博物馆为基础的外展活动向公众介绍眼动科学。随着眼动追踪研究在行为科学中变得越来越普遍，掌握该方法的学生和教师成为眼动研究和教育活动的更知情的消费者和生产者。
