Ramos, L. M.; Reis, C. R. N.; Calheiro, L. B.; Goncalves, A. M. B. – Physics Education, 2021
Using a joystick module, we followed the movement of a chaotic magnetic pendulum. The pendulum bar was attached to a joystick that served as a pivot point and biaxial angular motion sensor. Using an Arduino board, we could follow the position as a function of time along both the "x" and "y"-axis and draw a graph showing the…

Regester, Jeff; McGahee, Courtney – Physics Teacher, 2019
A planetarium is an invaluable tool for teaching introductory astronomy, but one that few astronomy educators have ready access to. Here we describe a do-it-yourself planetarium that can be built with modest funding. There have been other planetarium construction projects described in the literature and online, most of which use cardboard to make…

Rivera-Ortega, Uriel – Physics Education, 2021
A Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) tool is proposed in this manuscript; which consists of an interactive, simple and low-cost computer based simulation and game, with the aim of easing the teaching/learning process regarding the physics concept of projectile motion. The novelty of this proposal relies on the use of a…

Okcay, Murat; Haslam, Matthew J.; Jackson, Adriana R.; Kauppila, Tia M.; Larkin, Breanna; McBride, Chloe K.; Ticotin, Reece A.; Akyazi, Deniz – Journal of STEM Education: Innovations and Research, 2021
The purpose of this paper was to demonstrate University and High School collaboration through a Service Learning exercise. Pedagogical collaboration between the local Prescott High School and senior level mechanical engineering students from Embry Riddle Aeronautical University (ERAU) in Arizona had great benefits to both schools and the students.…

Wilson, David L. – Chronicle of Higher Education, 1991
The Comprehensive Unified Physics Learning Environment is a computer system using computer programs, interactive videodisks, and electronic sensors being developed at the University of Maryland. The method has been found more effective than traditional ones for teaching physics majors and is being used to modify the conventional course for…
