Deon T. Miles – Journal of Chemical Education, 2023
Students in a typical instrumental analysis course may learn more than 30 analytical techniques. There are more than 150 components associated with the instrumentation that they learn. To help students organize this large amount of information, we classified these components into four categories: sources, samples, discriminators, and detectors. In…

Patrick, Amanda L. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2020
Mass spectrometry is one of the few instrumental analysis techniques that can be relatively well-understood with physics/chemistry knowledge typical of an advanced high school or a beginning undergraduate student. This positions mass spectrometry well to be used as a bridge between abstract concepts typically set as learning goals in courses at…

González, Manuel I. – Physics Education, 2017
Measuring voltage-current and voltage-power curves of a photovoltaic module is a nice experiment for high school and undergraduate students. In labs where real sunlight is not available this experiment requires a solar simulator. A prototype of a simulator using LED lamps has been manufactured and tested, and a comparison with classical halogen…

Torres, Tarcilo; Milicic, Beatriz; Soto, Carlos; Sanjose, Vicente – EURASIA Journal of Mathematics, Science & Technology Education, 2013
Physics teachers use experimental devices to show students how scientific concepts, principles, and laws are applied to understand the real world. This paper studies question generation of secondary and under-graduate university students when they are confronted with experimental devices in different but usual teaching situations: reading about…

Moisan, Tiffany A.; Swift, Robert N.; Campbell, Brian A.; Yungel, James K.; Linkswiler, Matthew A.; Nolan, Jessica – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2008
Recently there have been newly launched ocean color satellites which target the coastlines at unprecedented scales. Science education curricula can benefit from the provision of small low-cost spectroradiometers and curriculum supplemental materials that can be incorporated in a "hands on" teaching approach to explain and demonstrate remote…
