1) New Curriculum: Internetics Concept as novel and powerful way of linking Computing to Applications
  • Concept generalizes computational science
  • An Internetics Certificate which we will offer over Internet both in USA and internationally
  • Integration with physics for new degree options
2) Improved curriculum in existing fields as in Physics-NPAC-Engineering-Cornell Collaborative Applets and web-based simulations
3) NeatTools for universal access allowing those with disabilities to be effective teachers and learners
4) TangoInteractive and WebWisdom as web-based distance education technology to allow broad dissemination of curriculum starting locally
5) High Energy Physics experimental group as research link
