Improvement of Science Education with FT-NMR Spectroscopy

该项目将当前的FT-核磁共振技术带给亨廷顿学院理科和非理科专业的学生。将通过演示向普通化学课程的学生介绍核磁共振的原理和使用方法。仪器的实际使用和光谱分析在有机课程中开始，并贯穿整个课程的其余部分。二维技术，如COSY和HETCOR，为学生提供行业就业或研究生院所需的培训和经验。核磁共振波谱仪扩大了本科生的研究范围，激发了人们对科学的兴趣。该项目加强了对地方高校特殊课程教职员工的教育和培训。这扩大了该项目对更广泛受众的影响，其中包括代表性不足的群体。该项目通过参与学院的反馈、课程和本科生研究项目的学生数量、正式报告、出版物以及对教职员工和学生的调查来评估。传播是通过演讲、出版、网络以及在科学会议上与教育工作者的互动进行的。*

This project brings current FT-NMR technology to science and non-science majors at Huntington College. Students in general chemistry courses will be introduced to the theory and use of NMR through demonstrations. Hands-on use of the instrument and analysis of spectra is initiated in the organic course and continues throughout the remainder of the curriculum. Two-dimensional techniques, such as COSY and HETCOR, provide students with the training and experience required for industrial employment or graduate school. The NMR spectrometer improves the scope of undergraduate research and sparks interest in science. The project enhances the education and training of faculty and students from local colleges in special courses. This expands the impact of the project on a wider audience which includes underrepresented groups. The project is evaluated by feedback from participating colleges, the number of students in courses and undergraduate research projects, formal presentations, publications, and surveys of faculty and students. Dissemination is occuring through presentations, publication, the Web, and interactions with educators at scientific meetings. *
