In this presentation we will investigate the mathematics and physics of a free-falling object, not for the purpose of research to discover some profound physical phenomena, but rather to enhance students' ability to gather, organize, and analyze data using state of the art hand held technology. We will use the TI-83 plus (a sophisticated graphing…

Peer reviewedBrueningsen, Chris; Bower, William – Physics Teacher, 1995
Presents a series of simple activities involving generalized two-dimensional motion topics to prepare students to study projectile motion. Uses a pair of motion detectors, each connected to a calculator-based-laboratory (CBL) unit interfaced with a standard graphics calculator, to explore two-dimensional motion. (JRH)

Peer reviewedTaylor, Richard L. – Physics Teacher, 1995
Describes the use of the TI-82 graphics calculator as an intermediate step in introducing computers to the high-school physics lab. Discusses linking the calculator with other machines so that students can save data, enter programs on a computer and later download to the calculator, and transfer graphs to a computer for printing. (JRH)

Peer reviewedCortes-Figueroa, Jose E.; Moore, Deborah A. – Journal of Chemical Education, 1999
Describes the use of Calculator-Based Laboratory (CBL) technology and a projectable TI-83 graphing calculator to demonstrate the kinetic behavior of a complex reaction. Explains how the CBL is used to review first-order reactions and the graphing calculator is used to determine the rate constants for a series of consecutive first-order reactions.…
