Physics professor Wolfgang Christian
Authentieke Kwaliteit Heren Nike Free Run 3 Dark Grey Blue Prism Koop Meer learned about the wonder of science when he was very young. Among the toys Christian’s engineer father introduced to his son were electric trains, magnets, and lenses.
"A lot of my interest in science came about through interactive engagement at home," says Christian.

His Open Source Physics Web site, a valuable tool in physics education developed with colleagues Francisco Esquembre and Lyle Barbato, has been selected to win a Science Prize for Online Resources in Education (SPORE).

In 1979, not long after Christian earned his PhD from North Carolina State University and began his teaching career, he became a microcomputer enthusiast, joining a club that bought teletype machines at ham radio events

By 1986, Christian had established the first Ethernet network on the campus of Davidson College, where he still teaches, introducing microcomputer based laboratories into

"We were

The next big step toward the
Authentique 100% 2012 Nike Free Run 4.0 V2 Men Gris Vert Pour Chaussures Pas Cher Mais Le Real OSP project occurred when Christian stumbled on Java as a way to bring Internet based interactive physics problems to upper level students. He says he knew he "had a winner" in his use of Java, and he began showing how it worked at meetings of the American Association of Physics Teachers, of which he is president elect of the North Carolina Section, and the American Physical Society, of which he

While attracting the interest of major publishers who tied their physics textbooks to Christian’s online materials, he stuck to a course that would make interactive computer modeling of physics available to students at earlier stages of their education, a direction that was greatly aided by
Authentieke Kwaliteit En Goedkope Prijs Garantie Nike Free Run 4.0 Anti Bont Men Grey Blue Lage Prijs Esquembre, who had developed Easy Java Simulations (ESJ). ESJ provided an intuitive tool for students who were not expert in Java. Without writing much code, physics students could manipulate the elements of a model, experiment with the effects of those manipulations, and learn firsthand about physics and its laws.
Christian is currently working toward involving K 12 students, such as his wife’s middle school students, who as seventh graders are learning about concepts such as temperature. Christian was able to adapt a college level

"The students could heat and cool the system, and then we could ask them questions like, ‘At what temperature does it melt?’" Christian says. "They got visual feedback from the simulation and had to make decisions about the basic concepts."
The OSP Web site was designed by Barbato, who is the technical director of the ComPADRE Digital Library,
Authentieke Herenschoenen Nike Free Run 4.0 Anti Fur Gray Green Men Met Goedkoopste Prijs En Top Kwaliteit which provides an infrastructure for the online dissemination of OSP materials. The Web site contains ready to run simulations and tools such as EJS and a video analysis program called
Authentieke Kwaliteit En Goedkope Prijs Garantie Vrouwen Nike Free Run 3.0 V4 Totaal Orange Neon Reflecterende Zilveren Wolf Grey Voor Goedkope Schoenen Tracker. Although the site’s ready to run simulations can be used to provide a deeper understanding of physics concepts, they are distributed with their source code and are intended to be modified by students and teachers. All are based on research grade algorithms and can be adjusted and reconfigured easily using the free OSP code library and the EJS modeling tool.
"These ready to run simulations and tools for developing new simulations help students visualize situations and better understand abstract concepts," says Melissa McCartney, editorial fellow at Science. "That is not always possible when learning physics through static pictures."
Christian explains how OSP allows students and teachers to adapt existing simulations and develop their own simulations as follows:
"You’re running a simulation, and you want to change it, so you can just right click," he says. "This action copies the code from within the running program into EJS, where you can change the packaged narrative, the internal parameters, and the algorithm to suit your teaching method and your student’s abilities.
