A Classroom Microcomputer Laboratory for Calculus and Introductory Programming

教室环境中的实验室用于教授微积分I和编程入门。课堂环境有助于演示，并促进学生在授课期间与计算机进行互动。数学课中使用的计算机代数系统软件和其他具有微积分/图形功能的程序为学生提供了正在讨论的主题的几何演示。为学生布置的作业为他们提供了广泛的实践经验。其中一些是授课时间的一部分，其他经验是在正式和非正式的实验室时间进行的。受赠人为该项目提供的资金与NSF奖相当。

A laboratory in a classroom setting is used for teaching Calculus I and Introductory Programming. The classroom setting facilitates demonstrations and promotes student interactions with the computer during lectures. Computer algebra system software and other programs with calculus/graphics capabilities used in the math classes give the students a geometric demonstration of the topics being discussed. Assignments made to students provide them with extensive "hands-on" experience. Some of this is part of the lecture period and other experience is during formal and informal laboratory periods. The grantee provides funds for this project that are an equal match for the NSF award.
