Integration of Automatic Procedures for Acquisition, Processing, Storage, Analysis and Monitoring of Experimental Data in Physics Education

Abstract

The acquisition of experimental data and their processing in real time is an important problem on which depends the didactic efficiency in teaching and learning Physics at secondary level using the STEM educational model. A viable solution to this problem is the use of microcontroller boards and of sensors. In this sense, we have developed teaching tools based on the Arduino Uno development boards and an ecosystem of sensors used both in experiments and in Physics projects. Interpretation and analysis of experimental data were performed using the Microsoft Data Streamer add-in for Excel. In this paper are presented a series of results obtained through the implementation and testing of these modern educational tools, very important for Physics teachers.
