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 - Introductory Physics Labs -- Using `smart phones' to engage students

摘要

While cell phones are sometimes an unwanted distraction, new applications that access the multiple sensors on these common devices make them useful laboratory tools. Students in freshman physics labs have been encouraged to find new ways that smart phone functions and applications can be used in the design and execution of lab experiments. Several examples for both the intro mechanics and intro E{&}M labs will be discussed.
