Title

: Reflection on velocity and temperature experiment using data loggers.

Date : 8 April 2016


Probe :- trolley, slider, usb hub and sensor for testing the velocity .
-

temperature measurement, ice cube , usb hub and beaker.

Before doing the experiment, Im really scared because I dont have any
experience using the apparatus. Im only knew some of the apparatus from the science
teacher and the books that I have read. After we began the experiment, Im being so
excited to figure out what is the result that will be screen on the data or graph. I never
knew the existing of data studio or data loggers as for calculate or measure physic
experiments for example while using the thermometer. We just only use manually to
measure human temperature.
But by using all these apparatus and data loggers actually it could help us to get
accurate data with guidance. From these experiments that have been done, I concluded
when we learnt something new, someone must guide us from the basic skill. Without the
guidance, we cannot get the ways on how to use the apparatus. If , we as a teacher has
content knowledge but do not know on how to use the technology, it is not enough to
make us look an excellent teacher. It is not easy to become a teacher because we must
know about the technology, pedagogical and content knowledge.
In addition, by using data loggers, we can manipulate the variables into diagrams
or table. The most important is, we can save time while teaching and learning and get
the accurate data.
The result of the experiment by using the trolley and slider .When the velocity of
an object changes it is said to be accelerating. Acceleration is the rate of change of
velocity with time. Accelerating objects have a changing velocity - either due to a speed
change (speeding up or slowing down) or a direction change.

Meanwhile , when we used the measurement temperature , it showed that cold


temperature by using the ice cube compared to human being temperature it will be
increased. The thermometer calibration process described below results by using the
scale of a temperature of 29.1 degrees Celsius is abbreviated as 29.1C.

As the conclusion, when I did the experiments with my friends, Im really excited
and eager to know the result. What I have learnt in the lab , I hope I could implement
the experiment in school and makes pupils feeling happy and excited in learning
science.
