Mathematical Sciences (21). An "investigative classroom" is being established to give students writing space, personal access to Internet connected computers, space for collaborative work, and visual access to a SMART Board. The approach blends active learning, collaborative work among students, instructor led electronic demonstrations, and a minimal amount of lecturing. Instead learning activities are being implemented that exploit a variety of applications-oriented materials developed for calculus I and II over the last eight years under the aegis of NSF and other institutions. Collaborative, investigative exercises that start in class are used to generate longer-term group projects; and a computer algebra system, Maple, and the TI-89 calculator are used as aids to visualization and exploration.

数学科学（21）。正在建立一个“调查教室”，为学生提供写作空间、个人访问互联网连接的计算机、协作工作的空间以及对 SMART Board 的视觉访问。该方法融合了主动学习、学生之间的协作、教师引导的电子演示和少量的讲座。相反，正在实施的学习活动利用了过去八年在 NSF 和其他机构的支持下为微积分 I 和 II 开发的各种面向应用的材料。在课堂上开始的协作、调查性练习用于生成长期的小组项目；计算机代数系统 Maple 和 TI-89 计算器被用作可视化和探索的辅助工具。
