This project adapts and implements technology, research-based instructional strategies, and curriculum developed elsewhere, in physics and mathematics courses. These courses are conducted in a physical learning environment adapted from the Workshop Physics model (Laws) integrating laboratory and lecture, and using computer-based data collection and analysis tools. Innovative research-based techniques such as the Learning Cycle (Karplus), Peer Instruction (Mazur) via ClassTalk and Socratic Dialog Inducing Procedures (Hake) are adapted and implemented in this workshop setting for several introductory physics courses. Research based materials such as Interactive Physics, Physlets, VideoPoint, Visual Quantum Mechanics are integrated into the introductory courses making the necessary implementations to adjust the instructional units for undergraduate students in the target physics courses. The Pre-Calculus, Calculus, Differential Equations, and Mathematical Modeling courses adapts Multimedia Mathematics (Dunbar) and web-based Math Archives from the University of Tennessee. CBLs and TI calculators are used in conjunction with Maple, Graphical Analysis and Interactive Differential Equations. Instruments measuring students' conceptual understanding, attitudes, and expectations as well as ability to integrate mathematics its applications form the basis of the evaluation. Project results are disseminated through papers in refereed journals and presentations at conferences attended by physics educators, to serve as a template for reform and revitalization in other institutions.

该项目采用并实施了物理和数学课程中的技术、基于研究的教学策略以及其他地方开发的课程。 这些课程在物理学习环境中进行，该环境改编自研讨会物理模型（定律），整合了实验室和讲座，并使用基于计算机的数据收集和分析工具。基于创新研究的技术，例如学习周期 (Karplus)、通过 ClassTalk 进行的同伴指导 (Mazur) 和苏格拉底式对话诱导程序 (Hake) 在本研讨会环境中针对几门物理入门课程进行了调整和实施。 基于研究的材料，如交互式物理、Physlets、VideoPoint、视觉量子力学等，被整合到入门课程中，并进行必要的实施，以调整本科生目标物理课程的教学单元。 初级微积分、微积分、微分方程和数学建模课程改编自田纳西大学的多媒体数学 (Dunbar) 和基于网络的数学档案。 CBL 和 TI 计算器与 Maple、图形分析和交互式微分方程结合使用。衡量学生概念理解、态度和期望以及将数学与其应用相结合的能力的工具构成了评估的基础。 项目成果通过在物理教育工作者参加的会议上发表论文和在物理教育工作者参加的会议上发表的论文来传播，作为其他机构改革和振兴的模板。
