Physics Laboratory Computerized Data Acquisition and Analysis in Electricity and Magnetism

9452547铅锤这个仪器和实验室改进项目将配备一个实验室/教室和一个开放式实验室，以支持物理课程的课程创新，重点是电学和磁学。 电和磁的课程开发活动继续朝着积极的学生参与和大量的观察为基础的方法，以力学教学的成功运动。 课程编制活动将在1994年秋季提供经修订的电和磁课程之前进行。我们将网络Macintosh Quadra 660计算机，配备了游标通用实验室接口板，到苹果工作组服务器。 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/或验证电和磁的理论模型。

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.
