Project Summary
|
A
seed grant has been awarded jointly to Cairo University
and Elizabeth City State University, the U.S. Counterpart
University. The U.S. Researcher will assist members of Cairo
University in developing computer-aided models for students
in biology, chemistry, mathematics and physics. The U.S.
Researcher will help in analyzing computer hardware needs
and will provide training on the software and hardware for
Egyptian researchers. Dr. Linda Hayden serves as the U.S.
Researcher while Dr. S.R. Atala serves as the Egyptian Researcher.
Egyptian
faculty will use Authorware and Director by Macromedia to
develop training modules for first-and second-year students
at Cairo University. U.S. Counterpart will help to conduct
training sessions in the United States and in Cairo for
Egyptian researchers
The
goal will be to create modules compatible with all major
textbooks in physics,chemistry, mathematics and biology.
Modules will include a built-in editor to allow for addition
of other materials; text and animation to illustrate and
demonstrate the lesson in a step-by-step fashion with concepts,
graphics, shapes and with sound effects. |
