Physics Laboratory Computerized Data Acquisition and Analysis in Electricity and Magnetism

9452547 Plumb这个仪器和实验室改进项目将配备一个实验室/教室和一个开放实验室，以支持以电学和磁学为重点的物理课程的课程创新。电学和磁学的课程开发活动继续朝着积极的学生参与和以大量观察为基础的力学教学方法的方向发展。课程开发活动将在1994年秋季提供经修订的电学和磁学课程之前进行，并与之并行。我们将把配备了游标通用实验室接口板的Macintosh Quadra 660计算机联网到Apple Workgroup服务器。学生将使用电流和电压探头、智能滑轮和其他计算机化的数据采集设备来构建和/或验证电学和磁学的理论模型。

9452547 Plumb This Instrumentation and Laboratory Improvement project will equip a laboratory/classroom and an open laboratory to support curriculum innovation in Physics courses that focus on Electricity and Magnetism. The curriculum development activities in Electricity and Magnetism continue the successful movement toward active student involvement and a heavily observation-based approach to the teaching of Mechanics. The curriculum development activities will precede and parallel the offering of a revised Electricity and Magnetism course in Fall 1994. We will network Macintosh Quadra 660 computers, equipped with Vernier Universal Lab Interface Boards, to an Apple Workgroup server. Students will use current and voltage probes, smart pulleys and other computerized data acquisition devices to construct and/or verify theoretical models in Electricity and Magnetism.
