APS -Spring 2017 Joint Meeting of the Texas Section of AAPT, Texas Section of APS, and Zone 13 of the Society of Physics Students - Event - Using Glowscript in the Introductory Physics Laboratory

摘要

During the past several years, I have students use VPython (underline {http://vpython.org}) to perform certain mechanics and electricity and magnetism laboratory activities in my calculus-based courses. Starting fall 2016, I have switched these activities to Glowscript (underline {http://www.glowscript.org}). In this presentation, I will discuss what I am currently doing in these laboratory courses, some of the advantages in using Glowscript, and some student generated results.
