The project by Metropolitan State University of Denver and its sister institutions Community College of Denver and University of Colorado-Denver, is integrating a 300 MHz FT-NMR (Fourier Transform-Nuclear Magnetic Resonance) spectrometer into the organic laboratory. The incorporation of modern spectroscopic techniques is enhancing the skill set students need for success in STEM careers. The high resolution, sophisticated pulse sequences, and dramatically improved throughput of the FT-NMR is allowing a shift to inquiry- and discovery-based teaching laboratory experiences which in turn, is driving improvements in students' ability to reach valid conclusions from data, in their scientific literacy, and in their technical writing. The project builds on preliminary data which demonstrates that students learn more and are more prepared for STEM careers and graduate study, when exposed to authentic research as opposed to traditional recipe/verification laboratory curriculum. In addition to the incorporation of effective, evidenced-based teaching practices in the organic laboratories of the three institutions, the students will produce a dynamic, web-based lab manual wherein they are the primary contributors, the development of which enhances student literacy skills, research ethics, laboratory stewardship, and experimental design. The project will lead to broadening participation in the sciences since the three institutions serve a large number of Colorado's underrepresented-in-STEM student population as well as numerous students who transfer from community colleges.

丹佛都市州立大学及其姊妹机构丹佛社区学院和科罗拉多大学丹佛分校的项目正在将300 MHz FT-NMR（傅立叶变换-核磁共振）光谱仪集成到有机实验室中。 现代光谱技术的结合正在增强学生在STEM职业生涯中取得成功所需的技能。 FT-NMR的高分辨率，复杂的脉冲序列和显着提高的吞吐量允许转向基于探究和发现的教学实验室体验，这反过来又推动了学生从数据中得出有效结论的能力的提高，他们的科学素养，以及他们的技术写作。 该项目建立在初步数据的基础上，这些数据表明，当学生接触到真实的研究而不是传统的配方/验证实验室课程时，他们学到的东西更多，并且为STEM职业和研究生学习做好了更多的准备。 除了在三个机构的有机实验室纳入有效的，以证据为基础的教学实践，学生将产生一个动态的，基于网络的实验室手册，其中他们是主要贡献者，其发展提高了学生的识字技能，研究道德，实验室管理和实验设计。 该项目将扩大对科学的参与，因为这三个机构为大量科罗拉多的STEM学生人口以及从社区学院转学的众多学生提供服务。
