Bio Rehab Engineering Modules 1993-1994
|
| Contact Name: Daniel R Raichel |
Organization: The Cooper Union |
|
|
Bioinstrumentation modules were developed, consisting of (a) chapters covering the fundamentals of acoustics, physiology of the human ear and psychoacoustics, principles and applications of measuring instruments, and applications of ultrasonics in the medical field; and (b) descriptions of applications in medical imaging (e.g. CT, MRI, NMR, Ultrasound), laboratory design (low, moderate, and high budget versions), laboratory experiments, ultrasound and videofluorographic images (both on videotape and digitized in TIFF format on ZIP cartridge), NIH Image public domain image processing software), introductory imaging projects (includes step-by-step instructions).

ChemWrite
|
| Contact Name: Robert Battistini |
Organization: Columbia University |
|
|
This presentation features two courses that were developed in the 90�s in conjunction with Columbia�s Chemistry Department and highlight cross-discipline collaborations targeting early undergraduate education. In the Chemgate course, freshmen chemistry majors explore complex molecular modeling using Macromodel and Spartan software on the Gateway Labs SGI machines. The Chemwrite course brings the Columbia English Department in to work with freshman students to help develop their written communications skills.

Engineering Horizons
|
| Organization: Drexel University |
|
|
Engineering Horizons is a collection of course modules addressing engineering techical issues at the forefront of the modern techological public environment. There are many modules, each intended to be of approximately two week duration, which are assembled for a specific offering during any given term at Drexel University. The level of the modules is intended for a student of any major who has completed sophomore standing. The course is thus geared not only for the students of a major to which the module pertains but also to broaden the opportunities for students to learn about subject matter outside of their traditional discipline while putting the subject matter into the context of their own disciplinary interests. The student thus gains an interdisciplinary professional perspective. The modules available are identified by clicking on the site below. The modules generally will have classroom presentation materials, slides, external references and student assignments. They may be independently reviewed and or downloaded to fit the objectives of an instructor or course at other institutions.

Engineering Mechanics Studio Classroom
|
| Contact Name: Vito Guido |
Organization: The Cooper Union |
|
|
The �Engineering Mechanics Studio/Classroom� (EMS/C) was developed for the Engineering Mechanics course (ESC100) given at the Cooper Union � Albert Nerken School of Engineering. In this course both statics and dynamics are taught in a fifteen week semester. ESC100 is currently taken in sophomore year by those students majoring in civil, mechanical and electrical engineering. Three sections are offered with a total enrollment of approximately 80 to 90 students. The EMS/C will provide the student with the classical mode of lecturing enhanced by tabletop experiments used as demos or homework assignments and work stations with computers having internet access.

Fourier Transform Infared Spectrometry
|
| Organization: Columbia University |
|
|
This is a standalone interactive introduction to the theory of Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometry. It includes a real-time animated playback of material, including 3-D graphical representations of many concepts. The associated formulas can be further explored with a local version of Mathematica. Has bookmark feature for instructor to custom tailor a course of study through selected sections of presentation.
