XXY Oscilloscope. Version 1.0 (April 2017).

XXY Oscilloscope

Made by Neil Thapen. Thanks to m1el and ompuco for inspiration. Line-drawing code adapted from woscope by m1el. This uses an upsampling filter to simulate a digital-analogue converter between the computer and the oscilloscope. It turns sharp corners in the signal into curves, loops or ringing artefacts. The trace moves to the right at a fixed speed. Enter mathematical expressions (in javascript). X = y = x is the left channel, y the right. To get audio from another program, you can either physically connect your audio output to your audio input, or use third party software, such as VB-CABLE on Windows or Soundflower with SoundflowerBed on MacOS. x is the left channel, y the right.

May 6, 2017 The apps we curated for you today provide students with virtual labs where they can learn more on a wide variety of scientific phenomena.

Educational Technology and Mobile Learning: 6 Good Virtual Science Lab Apps for Students

Using an inquiry-based learning approach, students will get to access interactive simulations, collaborate on quizzes, explore tables of elements and solve scientific puzzles all while having fun. We have included both Android and iPad apps, check them out and see which ones work for you. Enjoy. Earl Haig Secondary School - Physics Review Lessons. PBL, Physics, Basketball, and Inquiring Minds.

There are no dues, just an interest in sharing ideas that can improve physics education and the persons attending the meetings. There are usually 4 meetings a year. We have had people attend who live in northern Iowa or northern Minnesota and we try to accommodate these participants by scheduling meetings from 9:00 AM – 12:00 PM on Saturdays (the 2nd Saturday of odd-numbered months). It is usually easier to attend a meeting on a Saturday morning versus a weekday. An important part of the meetings is the networking that is developed. There is a newsletter sent to some schools. APlusPhysics - High School Physics and AP Physics Online. PBL. Cartoon Physics. This page is authored by Ray Purdom, University of North Carolina at Greensboro, based on an original activity by Dan Burns, Los Gatos High School, Los Gatos, CA Author Profile Summary The physical laws of nature are often broken or bent in cartoons for comic effect.

Students will watch segments of cartoons that depict physical activities and discuss the physical world portrayed with the accepted physical laws of nature. Learning Goals The goal of this activity is to reinforce the knowledge of several laws of physics and to uncover misconceptions that students may possess. Context for Use This activity could be used at the beginning of the semester to introduce the subject and to explore the prior knowledge or misconceptions that students possess.

Description and Teaching Materials We will use the Road Runner cartoon series to promote discussion of physical principles introduced or violated in numerous Road Runner segments. Active Physics.

I teach Physics and AP Physics B and have found some great resources over the years to use in class and to share with students as support materials. Here's a list of some of them. 1. The Physics Classroom - this site is excellent. It has a tutorial section (online lessons with links, practice problems and simulations) along with a review section, help for solving word problems, links, multimedia resources and much more. The lessons are in easy to understand terms and each subject area is broken down into small parts. PhET: Free online physics, chemistry, biology, earth science and math simulations. Physics 2000.

Using Direct Measurement Videos to Teach Physics. Peter Bohacek, Henry Sibley High School, peter.bohacek@isd197.org Matthew Vonk, University of Wisconsin - River Falls Ellen Iverson, Science Education Resource Center (SERC), Carleton College Karin Kirk, Science Education Resource Center (SERC), Carleton College What are Direct Measurement Videos?

Using Direct Measurement Videos to Teach Physics

Direct Measurement videos show situations that students can use to learn and apply physics concepts. Grids, rulers, and frame-counters are added as overlays on the video. Vectors dice and pennies. Win? Fail? PHYSICS!
