Learning Physics through Video Analysis and Modelling




Tracker is a free video analysis and modeling tool built on the Open Source Physics (OSP) Java framework. It is designed to be used in physics education. Tracker video modeling is a powerful way to combine videos with computer modeling.

Using Tracker we get position and time data for an object in motion. This is usually done with the drop timer or the motion detector, where as in video analysis, we use a program to mark an object in each frame of a video. This gives 2-dimensional position data (both x and y) as well as time. With this data we can analyze it as per our requirement.

Go-Lab: Global Online Science Labs for Inquiry Learning At School

In the Go-Lab Repository you can find remote and virtual laboratories for different science domains such as Physics, Astronomy, Chemistry, Biology, Geography, and Math. You can use these labs together with your students to enrich your classroom activities with interactive experiments and appealing demonstrations. Moreover, here you can find inquiry learning applications, which will support your students in formulating research questions and hypotheses, conducting scientific experiments, and drawing conclusions.
