中文简介:
来自美国一些顶尖科技学校的创新者展示了他们让科学和工程教育更具吸引力, 如果不是有趣的东西的方法。 在塔夫茨, 艾琳·乔治库迪将乐高交给了一个关于光学和激光的大一学生。在传达光的特性和激光操作原理的同时, 她希望能激发学生对物理和工程的认识。团队根据乐高设计和构建仪器, 并进行实验、收集和记录数据。Georgakoudi 说, 通过一些复杂的附加组件, 如电机、光传感器和控制模块, legos 可以 "增进对基本概念的理解, 促进创造性思维, 提供制造和控制仪器的实践经验。rpi 的 shekhar garde 旨在满足更年轻的受众的兴趣。他的分子室, 一个动画音乐电影介绍世界的分子, 目标 k-4 儿童。加德认为, 如果这个国家在培养科技人才方面做得不够, 我们必须让孩子们相信, "原子和分子是惊人的、有趣的, 了解它们是很酷的"根据经验, 加德和他的同事们专注于扩大水分子、碳原子 – – 微小, 并讲述了一个关于卡通人物物质转化的故事。他希望在基础的帮助下, 搬到一个更大的媒体, imax 电影。 从她研究空中交通管制人员需要多久才能适应新技术的研究来看, 艾米·普里切特认为, 向她的研究所同行介绍新技术和新方法不会是即时的。虽然许多教师已经开发出适合其特定课程的技术, 但其他教师仍然完全不感兴趣。在她自己的工业工程课程中, 学生们使用一个网站进行异步对话, 以审查彼此的设计。普里切特认为, 课堂上需要的不是 "新技术, 而是工作流程", 特别是那些围绕认知设计的过程。只有在课堂上展示新技术的有效性和可靠性, 并展示如何实施新的应用程序, 教师才会希望登录。 在密歇根大学, 彼得·陈提出了计算系统的介绍, 让一年级学生 "体验工程的乐趣", 利用热情和创造力。他的微处理器和音乐课程要求学生构思产品, 然后设计、构建、测试和报告。在创建音乐机器的过程中, 学生们学习了数字逻辑、计算机体系结构和嵌入式系统的基础知识。陈一冰 "玩" 了其中的一些产品, 他说, 这些产品给了学生一种自豪感和成就感。该课程在学生中获得了压倒性的好评, 并对从事计算机工程职业产生了浓厚的兴趣。
课程简介: Innovators from some of the nation’s top tech schools demonstrate their methods for making science and engineering education more engaging, if not fun. At Tufts, Irene Georgakoudi hands out Legos to a freshman class on optics and lasers. While conveying properties of light and principles of laser operation, she hopes to excite students about physics and engineering. Teams design and build instruments out of Legos, and conduct experiments, gathering and recording data. Georgakoudi says with some sophisticated add-ons like motors, light sensors and control modules, Legos can “enhance understanding of basic concepts, promote creative thinking, provide practical experience with building and controlling instruments and promote teamwork.” Shekhar Garde of RPI aims to feed the minds of an even younger audience. His Molecularium, an animated musical film introduction to the world of molecules, targets K-4 children. If this country is falling short in producing scientific and technological talent, Garde believes, we must convince kids that “atoms and molecules are amazing and interesting, and that it’s cool to learn about them.” Instead of a planetarium experience, Garde and colleagues focused on expanding the minuscule – water molecules, carbon atoms – and telling a story about the transformation of matter with cartoon characters. He’s hoping to move to an even bigger medium, IMAX film, with foundation help. From her research studying how long air traffic controllers need to adapt to new technologies, Amy Pritchett figured that introducing novel technologies and methods to her institute peers would not be instantaneous. While many instructors have already developed technologies suited to their particular curriculum, other faculty remain completely uninterested. In her own industrial engineering course, students use a website for asynchronous dialogue to review each other’s designs. Pritchett believes what’s needed in the classroom is “not new technology but work processes,” especially those designed around cognition. Only by demonstrating that new technologies are effective and reliable in the classroom, and by showing how to implement new applications, will faculty want to sign on. At the University of Michigan, Peter Chen has come up with an introduction to computing systems that allows first year students “to experience the joys of engineering,” harnessing both enthusiasm and creativity. His Microprocessors and Music course demands that students conceive a product, then design, build, test and report on it. In the process of creating music machines, students pick up the basics of digital logic, computer architecture and embedded systems. Chen “plays” some of these products, which, he says, gave students a sense of pride and accomplishment. The course yielded overwhelmingly positive reviews among students as well as deep interest in pursuing computer engineering careers.
