Peer reviewedPeterson, Lars Ostrup; Justesen, Uffe – Physics Teacher, 1996
Presents a simple experiment--a marble rolling on a tilted desk--to introduce students to moving bodies. Makes difficult subjects such as measurement, calculus, modeling, and uncertainty easier to identify by putting them into a simple context. Discusses misconceptions, models, and measurements. (JRH)
