Undergraduate Software Design Laboratory

该设备的收购增加了三门计算机科学课程的实验室组成部分：软件工程，人工智能和人机交互。主要目的是通过给学生提供机会和帮助，在这些典型的划分的知识单元之间建立联系，从而在该学科的理论和实践之间建立联系。大多数设计活动都是面向项目的，学生们采用真实的系统和真实的用户，并在其上下文中探索计算机使用的本质。该奖金将由主要研究者所在机构提供同等数额的奖金。

The acquisition of this equipment adds a laboratory component to three computer science courses: Software Engineering, Artificial Intelligence, and Human-Computer Interaction. The primary purpose is to establish a connection between the theory and practice of the discipline by giving students the opportunity and assistance in establishing links between these typically compartmentalized intellectual units. Most of the design activities are project oriented where students take real systems with real users and explore the nature of computer use in its context. This award is being matched by an equal amount from the principal investigator's institution.
