凯瑟琳A.霍夫曼 DUE 9550878塔兰特CJC东北 1995财政年度27，348美元德克萨斯州赫斯特760543219 ILI -仪器 项目名称： 生命科学 标题：生理学实验室练习与交互式计算机-增强教学 在生理学实验室练习中使用计算机增强教学是为了确定：（1）计算机增强教学是否提高了对所涵盖材料的掌握，（2）学生对使用计算机应用程序与传统实验室的态度如何，以及（3）学生辍学率是否受到这种新方法的影响。 学生群体包括非科学和相关卫生专业的学生，其中妇女占78%。 实验室教学采用三管齐下的方法：（1）传统类型的标准动手实验室，（2）动手实验室和交互式多媒体软件的混合，以及（3）计算机增强实验室。 Intelitool和A. D.A. M软件正在与IBM兼容的计算机一起使用。 该项目的结果将在得克萨斯州初级学院教师协会大会和得克萨斯州高等教育协调委员会在得克萨斯州奥斯汀。 还将通过发表学术论文传播信息。 评价工作将主要根据从项目期间发放的经统计证实的调查表中在线收集的数据。

Katherine A. Hoffman DUE 9550878 Tarrant CJC Northeast FY1995 $ 27,348 Hurst, TX 760543219 ILI - Instrumentation Project: Life Sciences Title: Physiology Laboratory Exercises with Interactive Computer- Enhanced Instruction Computer-enhanced instruction in the physiology laboratory exercises is being employed to determine: (1) if computer-enhanced instruction improves mastery of the material covered, (2) what student attitudes are towards the use of computer applications versus conventional laboratories, and (3) if student dropout rates are affected by this new approach. The student audience includes non-science and allied health majors, with women comprising 78% of this population. A three-pronged approach to laboratory instruction is being employed: (1) Standard hands-on laboratories of a conventional type, (2) Mixtures of hands-on laboratories and interactive multimedia software, and (3) Computer-enhanced laboratories. Intelitool and A.D.A.M software is being employed with IBM compatible computers. Results of the project will be reported at the Texas Junior College Teacher Association Convention and to the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board in Austin, Texas. Information will also be disseminated by the publication of a scholarly paper. Evaluation will primarily be based on data collected on-line from statistically proven questionnaires administered over the length of the project.
