The UMD IMPULSE faculty team built on the results of several previous successful undergraduate experiments at other universities, such as those at RPI [1] and in the NSF Foundation Coalition [2]. The new program, called IMPULSE (integrated math, physics and undergraduate laboratory science, and engineering) [3,7,8]:
Many courses in IMPULSE were developed to exploit a technology-intensive classroom to improve learning.
