Undergraduate Computer Lab for Differential Equations, Scientific Computing, and Applied Mathematics

该项目进一步发展了哈维·穆德学院正在进行的一项努力，为学生提供数学课堂上的交互式计算机体验。在哈维马德学院开设的常微分方程式入门课程是所有学生的必修课，不分专业。在过去的两年里，他们开发了一本交互式计算机工作簿--微分方程式实验室工作簿，由Harvey Mudd的罗伯特·博雷利和考特尼·科尔曼以及RPI的威廉·博伊斯共同撰写。学生每周都要根据这本练习册完成实验作业。这本书已经由威利出版了。在这个项目中，他们正在推广上述成功的方法，以创建一个计算机实验室环境，并为另外两门计算密集型数学课程--数值分析和科学计算--编写实验室手册和练习。材料将被广泛传播。

This project is further developing an ongoing effort at Harvey Mudd College to provide students with interactive computer experience in the mathematics classroom. The introductory Ordinary Differential Equations course in which students are exposed to such instruction at Harvey Mudd College is required of all students regardless of major. During the past two years they have developed an interactive computer workbook, Differential Equations Laboratory Workbook, co-authored by Robert Borrelli and Courtney Coleman of Harvey Mudd and William Boyce of RPI. Students have weekly laboratory assignments from this workbook. This book has been published by Wiley. In this project they are expanding the successful approach described above to create a computer laboratory environment and laboratory manuals and exercises for two additional computationally intensive mathematics courses, Numerical Analysis and Scientific Computing. Materials will be widely disseminated.
