Navarre, Edward C. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2020
A simple computer interface for controlling a compact spectrograph for use as a spectrophotometer in an undergraduate teaching laboratory was developed. The project was implemented on a Raspberry Pi computer which permits the integration of a light source into the software. The interface was written in Python to facilitate modification by the user…

Li, Yuguang C.; Melenbrink, Elizabeth L.; Cordonier, Guy J.; Boggs, Christopher; Khan, Anupama; Isaac, Morko Kwembur; Nkhonjera, Lameck Kabambalika; Bahati, David; Billinge, Simon J.; Haile, Sossina M.; Kreuter, Rodney A.; Crable, Robert M.; Mallouk, Thomas E. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2018
This paper presents a teaching kit that combines the fabrication of a low-cost microcontroller-based potentiostat and a LabVIEW-generated graphical user interface. The potentiostat enables undergraduate-level students to learn electroanalytical techniques and characterize energy conversion devices such as solar cells. The purpose of this teaching…

Hui, Kaleonui J.; Coney, John P.; Binder, P.-M. – Physics Teacher, 2016
In PASCO's Technical Article #763, it is stated that "PASCO [also] makes sensors with an 8-pin DIN connector. These sensors cannot be used with the Vernier interfaces, as they have different power requirements." Recently we had the need to make such connections in a 10-station freshman lab. Since the Vernier input is a 6-way BT 631A plug…

Dalgarno, Barney; Harper, Barry – Australasian Journal of Educational Technology, 2004
This paper describes two empirical studies which investigated the importance for spatial learning of view control and object manipulation within 3D environments. A 3D virtual chemistry laboratory was used as the research instrument. Subjects, who were university undergraduate students (34 in the first study and 80 in the second study), undertook…
