Mathematics Undergraduate Resource Computer Laboratory

该项目将支持数学本科 亚利桑那大学资源计算机实验室。 是 在仪器和实验室改进项目下得到资助 (ILI)该计划的既定目标是改善“ 本科课程的质量，通过支持项目， 开发新的或改进的基于仪器的本科实验室 和/或科学、数学或工程领域的课程。" 该实验室将是一个步入式资源为本科生 学生;这将允许教师介绍学生 有现实的问题要解决。 该项目的目的是 使用计算机作为发现、丰富和深入研究的工具， 在每一个适当的本科课程的理解。 在 除了为该实验室购买软件外， 该大学的教职员工正在开发一种软件， 亚利桑那州。 该项目预计将影响约5000 工程学微积分或以上水平的学生， 科学、商业和教育。

This project will support the Mathematics Undergraduate Resource Computer Laboratory at the University of Arizona. It is being funded under the Instrumentation and Laboratory Improvement (ILI) Program, which has the stated goal of improving "the quality of the undergraduate curriculum by supporting projects to develop new or improved instrument-based undergraduate laboratory and/or field courses in science, mathematics, or engineering." The laboratory will be a walk-in resource for undergraduate students; this will allow the faculty to present the students with realistic problems to solve. The aim of the project is to use computers as tools for discovery, enrichment, and deeper understanding in every appropriate undergraduate course. In addition to the purchase of software for this laboratory, new software is being developed by faculty members at the University of Arizona. The project is expected to affect approximately 5000 students at or above the level of calculus in engineering, science, business, and education.
