Summer Seminars in Workshop Physics

入门物理教师正在得到帮助， 和实验室接口技能，以帮助学生学习 利用计算机探索真实的世界 现象。 为期两周的研讨会是提供给20所大学和 大学教师 与会者保持相互联系 并与研讨会讲师通过BITNET电话会议期间， 研讨会后的一个学年。这些主题包括： 计算机接口;电子表格和绘图技术的使用; 实验室接口和真实的时间数据分析的应用， 讲座演示;和数值问题解决和建模。 参与者的家庭机构贡献了约15%的额外资金， 为参加该项目的教师提供差旅费。

Introductory physics teachers are being helped to develop the computing and laboratory interfacing skills necessary to help their students learn physics by using the computer in the exploration of real world phenomena. The two week seminar is being offered for twenty college and university teachers. Participants remain in contact with one another and with the seminar instructors via a BITNET teleconference during the academic year after the seminar is conducted. The topics include: computer interfacing; use of spreadsheet, and graphing techniques; the application of laboratory interfacing and real time data analysis to lecture demonstrations; and numerical problem solving and modeling. The participants home institutions contribute about 15% additional in providing travel funds for the faculty who are attending the program.
