Interfacing Workshops for IBM-Compatible PCs in the College Physics Laboratory

9354021莫洛尼1994年夏天在罗斯-胡尔曼理工学院举办了一个为期一周的讲习班，以传播罗斯-胡尔曼的入门物理实验室在最近一次国家科学基金会资助期间开发的知识和专门知识。讲习班包括八到十个计算机接口的入门物理实验、软件演示和接口硬件的讨论。在晚上，每个参与者都会建造一个多功能的PC接口盒，里面有A/D转换器、仪表放大器、应变计和磁场检测器。Rose-Hulman为所有接口硬件开发了全面的软件包。参与者将获得这些包的概述，并了解最近开发的课堂和演示软件。该软件的所有源代码都提供给了参与者。每个参与者所在的机构被要求提供500美元的承诺，用于购买物理实验室接口设备。一个潜在的好处是，旧电脑可以“回收”到物理实验室，在那里，即使是8088台机器也仍然可以使用。***

9354021 Moloney A one week workshop is being offered at the Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology in the summer of 1994 to disseminate knowledge and expertise developed in the introductory physics laboratory at Rose-Hulman during a recent NSF grant.The workshop involves eight to ten computer-interfaced introductory physics experiments, software demonstrations, and discussions of interfacing hardware. In the evenings each participant builds a versatile PC interface box with A/D converter, instrumentation amplifier, strain gauge, and magnetic field detector. Comprehensive software packages have been developed at Rose-Hulman for all interface hardware. Participants get an overview of these packages, and a look at recently developed classroom and demonstration software. All of the source code for this software is provided to the participants.A $500 commitment is asked of each participant's institution for the purchase of physics laboratory interface equipment. One potential gain is the 'recycling' of older PCs to the physics laboratory where even 8088 machines can still be useful. ***
