Microcomputer-Equipped Workshops for the Introductory Mathematics Program

两个微型计算机教室/实验室，配有Macintosh IIsi 正在支持一个新的数学导论项目这 计划包括六门课程;定量研讨会 推理，统计与应用，数学与 应用I II和微积分I II。成功 以学习者为中心的教学方法已经在 离散数学和计算机科学导论 取代传统的演讲形式。学生工作 协作进行计算机练习， 帮助他们自己构建数学概念， 可转移的技能，可用于进一步研究， 数学、自然科学和社会科学。

Two microcomputer classroom/laboratories with Macintosh IIsi's are supporting a new Introductory Mathematics Program. This program consists of six courses; Workshops on Quantitative Reasoning, Statistics with Applications, Mathematics with Applications I & II, and Calculus I & II. The successful learner-centered pedagogical approach already employed in discrete mathematics and introductory computer science is replacing the traditional lecture format. Students work collaboratively on computer exercises specially designed to help them construct mathematical ideas on their own and acquire transferable skills that can be used in further study in mathematics and the natural and social sciences.
