A Model Undergraduate Mathematics Laboratory and Regional Technology Assistance Center

小行星9450848 俄克拉荷马州州立大学的数学系经营着一个现代化的综合数学实验室，称为数学学习资源中心（MLRC）。 MLRC的职能正在扩大，以作为示范实验室和区域技术援助中心。该中心服务于五个州地区的学院和大学，通过积极的外展计划提供信息，软件教学，课程材料和公共领域软件，包括动手研讨会，本地和远程现场访问，区域会议特别会议和计算机公告板。公告板可以通过电子邮件或匿名文件传输协议（ftp）在互联网上访问。电话、传真或邮件可供那些无法访问互联网的人使用。 该中心的一个重要职能是传播最近的数学课程改革，并协助客户熟悉实施改革所需的任何技术。 NSF资助的项目和与技术相关的课程改革是特色。 该中心还就如何获得购置设备和软件的资金提供咨询意见。 长期计划是在全国各地建立一个这样的区域中心网络。

9450848 Evans The Department of Mathematics at Oklahoma State University operates a modern, comprehensive mathematics laboratory called the Mathematics Learning Resource Center (MLRC). The functions of the MLRC are being expanded to serve as a Model Laboratory and Regional Technology Assistance Center. The Center serves colleges and universities in a five state region providing information, software instruction, curricular materials, and public domain software through an active outreach program that includes hands-on workshops, local and remote site visits, special sessions at regional meetings, and a computer bulletin board. The bulletin board is accessible through either electronic mail or anonymous file transfer protocol (ftp) on the internet. Telephone, fax, or mail is available for those who do not have access to the internet. An important function of the Center is to disseminate recent reforms in the mathematics curriculum and to assist clients in familiarizing themselves with whatever technology may be necessary to implement the reforms. NSF-funded projects and curriculum reforms related to technology are featured. The Center also provides advice on obtaining funding for acquisition of equipment and software. Long term plans are to foster a network of such regional centers around the country.
