Seok-Hyun Ga; Changmi Park; Hyun-Jung Cha; Chan-Jong Kim – IEEE Transactions on Learning Technologies, 2024
Data collection is crucial in securing evidence to support students' arguments during scientific inquiries. However, due to the high costs associated with equipping schools with various measurement devices, students are limited in the scope of their scientific inquiry. Arduino can be proposed as a solution to the lack of measurement devices in…

Greenslade, Thomas B., Jr. – Physics Teacher, 2022
As I approach my 70th year in physics, let me tell my younger colleagues about my adventures with computation. When I was 14, my father gave me a slide rule because I appeared to be headed toward a career in physics. Since then, I have had experience with many other calculating devices.

Saba, Janan; Langbeheim, Elon; Hel-Or, Hagit; Levy, Sharona T. – Journal of Research in Science Teaching, 2023
Electricity, especially the flow of current, is a challenging topic for students of all ages. This study conceptualizes students' explanation of electric current as a cluster of knowledge elements. These clusters, in turn, represent students' mental models of electric circuits. Thus, this study aims to identify and characterize students' mental…

Jesus, Guilherme C. C.; Castro, Tiago J. – Physics Education, 2022
In this work, we report the development of a low-cost Arduino-controlled device for didactic activities in light polarization. The main body of the prototype was designed and produced using laser-cut medium density fibreboard parts, including gears and pulleys. As a light source and detector, a 532 nm laser pointer and a light dependent resistor…

Moya, Antonio Angel; Merino, Ana – Physics Education, 2022
We describe a simple STEM project for students to learn to measure atmospheric pressure by using a sensor of the type BMP180 together with the Arduino electronic platform. The collected experimental data, together with simple experiments, can be used to study the different pressure units and the relationship between pressure and force. Also, they…

Wörner, Salome; Fischer, Christian; Kuhn, Jochen; Scheiter, Katharina; Neumann, Irene – Physics Teacher, 2021
Video motion analysis allows tracing trajectories of objects in motion and is an established method in physics education. Tablet computers, with their integrated cameras, offer the opportunity to both record and analyze dynamic motions during experiments on a single device. This enables students to work without transitioning the data between…

Biswas, Subhrajyoti; Roy, Durjoy – Physics Education, 2022
At constant current (I) the forward bias potential (V) of a "pn" junction diode may be considered to vary linearly with temperature (t) within a temperature range. Based on this property we have constructed diode thermometer using germanium (Ge) and silicon (Si) diodes. The experimental "V-t" data at constant forward current…
