Utilizzo di Tracker per lo studio della cinematica: un’esperienza in un liceo sportivo

An application of the Tracker Video Analysis and Modeling Tool software for the study of kinematics is presented. The activity has been tailored to exploit the students’ interest in sports, in order to improve their participation. The software has been used to make it easier to understand the basic concepts of kinematics, and to allow the study of complex motions, otherwise very difficult to represent and to analyse by hand.
