The Global Classroom

数学科学(21)该项目正在调整和实施用于课堂的视频会议能力，以提供大学间的教学互动和专业交流。特别是，该项目旨在解决这一领域的两个基本挑战：设备成本和缺乏对学生和教师之间直接互动的支持。最初，这种方法将用于微积分课程；然而，预计这种会议能力的使用将扩大到包括其他学科的课程以及其他数学课程。

Mathematical Sciences (21)The project is adapting and implementing video conferencing capabilities for classroom use to provide inter-university instructional interaction and professional communication. In particular, the project is intended to address two fundamental challenges in this area: cost of equipment and lack of support for direct interaction between students and instructor. Initially, the approach will be used in calculus courses; however, it is anticipated that the use of this conferencing capability will be expanded to include courses in other disciplines as well as other mathematics courses.
