Fukumoto, Hisao; Yamaguchi, Takashi; Ishibashi, Makoto; Furukawa, Tatsuya – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2021
Contribution: This article proposes a low-cost and mobile device-based learning support system for the stepper motor, which provides Web-based remote laboratory. This system allows young engineers to learn about rotational principles, control methods, and programming in stepper motors. Background: Familiarity with electrical machinery, such as…

Al-Soufi, Wajih; Carrazana-Garcia, Jorge; Novo, Mercedes – Journal of Chemical Education, 2020
We present our experience with transferring a four-day photometry and dye-adsorption laboratory experiment to the kitchens of students of Applied Thermodynamics from our degree in "Industrial Chemical Process Engineering". The students designed and built a double-beam photometer using their smartphones and household materials, then…

Soong, Ronald; Agmata, Kyle; Doyle, Tina; Jenne, Amy; Adamo, Antonio; Simpson, Andre J. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2019
Titration is a common introductory experiment performed across teaching laboratories from high school to university. Yet, its setup remains inaccessible for students with disabilities, denying them the opportunity for experiential learning. Therefore, rethinking such a setup is required to increase laboratory participation for these students. To…

Puantha, Rattanaporn; Khammarew, Wilaiwan; Tong-on, Anusorn; Saphet, Parinya – Physics Education, 2019
The purpose of this study was to develop a modern experimental apparatus using an Arduino with LabVIEW instead of the classical experiment. The wavelength of the sound was determined using the resonance of an air column. The smartphone app was used to generate the desired frequencies. A sound intensity and ultrasonic sensor was used to read the…

Davy, Emma C.; Quane, Steven L. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2021
Lab-based learning is an essential part of any undergraduate chemistry curriculum as it incorporates necessary and required hands-on experiential learning. However, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, many students are learning from home, rendering laboratory instruction a particular challenge. Options for educators include third party virtual…

Koenig, Michael H.; Yi, Eun P.; Sandridge, Matthew J.; Mathew, Alexander S.; Demas, James N. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2015
Fluorescence quenching is an analytical technique and a common undergraduate laboratory exercise. Unfortunately, a typical quenching experiment requires the use of an expensive fluorometer that measures the relative fluorescence intensity of a single sample in a closed compartment unseen by the experimenter. To overcome these shortcomings, we…
