Experimental lab propose of different data acquisition techniques of time measurement in physics teaching

Abstract

It promotes an increase in the students' motivation when facing this new teaching-learning technique. In this paper, the active methodology has been applied to an experiment related to time measurement processes. The students are asked to conduct a comparative study using four (4) different techniques of time measurements for a car running down on an inclined surface. The challenge is to identify and justify, from the data obtained, the most efficient technique for the proposed physics experiment.
