Beginning this school year, the 23 high schools of our school
district Are eliminating PSSC physics and conceptual physics.
InsteAd we will have one unified physics course called the
Physics I ( Gt or honor physics classes are to stAy; some
schools even have AP physics). This new change also includes
the impleentation of technology and the goal of teaching
physics without a TEXTBOOKS. Students are issued a textbook.
However, the emphasis is to use computers and do more lab.
Inorder to fascilitate the implementation of such program, a
full macintosh computer lab is now installed in the physics
classrooms of all 23 schools. Each computer integrated physics
lab have the following:
A teacher station--Centris 610 computer with 14"
Triniton Tube and 4 MB memory Expansion kit
Ten sets of:
Mac LCIIIwith 14" trinitron tube
phonets (for net work to printer)
ULI interface boxes
Sets of probewares:
motion detectors
force probes
magnetic field sensor
pressure sensor
microphone/amplifier
sound program
photogate system kit
Tools for Scientific Thinking--Motion and force
guide
At ease software
Wings for learning Explorer--
Gravit, SHM, Waves Ac/Dc Circuit
Interactive physics II
Vernier graphical analysis
ClarisWorks 2.0
Mac motion, Data Logger, Event Timer and Mac Temp
software
Right now my school has some software money available. I need
to put in order for any additional softwares of my choice as soon
as possible. Later on the money may not be availab.
Please make suggestions for any additional useful, good mac
softwares and computer related items that I should acquire.
Your immediate response would be greatly appreciated.
