Anno XLVI - n.4 - ottobre/dicembre 2013 Demenza informatica nella scuola e nel sociale
The use most of our pupils usually make of computers at home doesn’t help their understanding of school subjects, in our case physics. Readers are invited to discuss and share any positive computer based school experience they might have. […]
Anno XXXIV - n.3 - luglio/settembre 2001 Dentro la Scatola Nera: elevare gli standard usando la verifica in classe
The trouble with the prevalent approach to educational assessment is that we have divorced the certification of achievement and capability from the learning process. We started out with the aim of making the important measurable, and ended up making only the measurable important. […]
Anno XXXVI - n.2 - aprile/giugno 2003 Derivazione con Excel della legge di Maxwell-Boltzmann delle velocità molecolari
The article shows how the Maxwell-Boltzmann’s distribution law of molecular velocities, a physics law of statistic nature, can be tested using an electronic spreadsheet. The spreadsheet simulation allows a better understanding of the statistic aspects at the basis of the phenomena while acquiring skills in the use of this advanced software. […]
Anno XLII - n.2 - aprile/giugno 2009 Determinazione della carica specifica dell’elettrone per mezzo della deflessione magnetica dei raggi catodici
This article describes an experiment carried out by students as a group activity within the annual Physics workshops held by the ITIS ?L. da Vinci? in Carpi (MO). […]
Anno XXIX - n.4 - ottobre/dicembre 1996 Determinazione della costante di Boltzmann attraverso misure dinamiche di moti browniani
A simple check of Einstein – Smolukowskij law was performed. The observation and measurement of brownian motion is possible through a video recorder- television set. […]
