A caveat about using Great America. I teach in San Jose, CA and we had
participated in GA Physics Day for a number of years. But each year it got
larger and more expensive. They began charging even Season Ticket holders a
$5.00 fee. The crowds became so large that students had only one or a most two
chances to experience a ride and we found that was not enough times to gather
meaningful data. In recent years GA has been opening the park to the public
making it even more crowded. We finally decided that the cost and crowds
outweighed the benefits. I now offer it as an extra credit assignment for the
students to do on their own time on the weekends.
