A Laboratory/Classroom for Computational Mathematics

计算数学实验室/教室实验室/教室配备了20台IBM-55 SX计算机，用于满足工程、科学和数学学生需求的一系列上师数学课程。该实验室，连同一个额外的教室配备了计算机和投影板，提供了一个环境，在其中计算成为教学过程中的一个自然的一部分。学生们正在学习使用计算机不仅作为一个数字引擎来解决问题，但作为一个数学资源，他们可以利用，以提高自己的理解。

A Laboratory/Classroom for Computational MathematicsA laboratory/classroom is being equipped with 20 IBM-55SX computers for use in a range of upper division mathematics courses serving the needs of engineering, science, and mathematics students. The laboratory, together with an additional classroom equipped with computer and projection panel, is providing an environment in which computing becomes a natural part of the instructional process. Students are learning to use the computer not only as a numerical engine to solve problems, but as a mathematical resource which they can exploit to enhance their own understanding.
