Simulation-Based e-Learning Tools for Science, Engineering and Technology Education (Project SimBeLT)

对两年制技术和工程课程的综合电子学习模块进行研究、开发、测试和传播。这些模块的创建也可以用于中学和四年制大学的技术课程。虚拟实验室旨在加强对技术概念的理解，并掌握蒸汽动力工厂设备，柴油发动机，泵和阀门等领域的选定性能技能。这一发展扩展了先前资助项目的工作，并建立在主动学习套件的基础上，该套件具有模拟，互动课程，脚本和动画教师助理，评估和辅助工具等等。

Integrated e-learning modules for two-year technical and engineering curricula are researched, developed, tested, and disseminated. The modules are created so that they can also be used in technical programs in secondary schools and four year colleges. Virtual labs are designed to enhance the understanding of technical concepts and master selected performance skills in areas such as steam powered plant equipment, diesel engines, pumps, and valves. This development extends the work of a previously funded project and is built upon Active Learning Suite which has simulations, interactive lessons, a scriptable and animated instructor's assistant, assessment and ancillary tools, and more.
