Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a complete guide for teaching physical measurement, with the goal of developing scientific judgment in order to gather and analyze data accurately. The author advocates for a lecture and laboratory-based approach to augment textbooks. Rather than focus on new knowledge, the author posits that fostering a "sense of ownership" by assigning dedicated lab space to each student cultivates greater interest, which leads to better preservation of instruments and enhanced learning outcomes. Laboratories should be well-lit, temperature-controlled, and equipped with safety features; specifically, laboratories should not be in the basement or near power lines. The book includes a list of 20 essential apparatus categories, along with an alphabetical listing of supplies and tools to facilitate procurement. An optional fee structure is suggested to ensure access to up-to-date equipment. This book is a necessary resource for instructors in the field of physical measurement seeking to enhance their curriculum and improve student outcomes.
