The Propeller Experiment Controller: Low-Cost Automation for Classroom Experiments in Learning and Behavior

Abstract

The use of the Propeller Experiment Controller to create inexpensive teaching laboratories in behavior is described. Pre-written programs are provided for unique classroom experiments in habituation and classical conditioning. Several programs are also provided to recreate the traditional student operant conditioning laboratory. Video tutorials are also available to guide the user to effectively use the Propeller Experiment Controller for behavioral experiments.
