The Interactive CD
This CD was developed during the summer of 2001by four Willliams students working as the "Hypernauts" with WIT (Williams Instructional Technology Project). They were Naila Baloch '03, Jesse Dill '04, William Lindeke '01, and Iskra Valcheva, '03. There are currently five chapters of Macromedia Director movies and animations illustrating concepts in cosmology, astronomy, biological evolution, chaos theory and quantum phenomena relevant to the course. Last summer the movies were improved by Iskra Valcheva, Jason Potell, 04, and Jake Mandel, '05, working as the "Entropy, Inc." team with WIT 2002.If you are on the Williams web, you can download an introduction to the CD by clicking on an "Introduction" link below. To play it you will need QuickTime,which is on most college computers or a free download from the internet.
