Computers in Teaching-Learning of Physics Discipline: Investigating Different Methodologies
Nowadays, the use of the computer science is an unquestionable fact in all sections of our society. In the last years, in Brazil, some public and private incentives have been permitting to take for some teaching institutions a little of this reality. Therefore what we can question today is not if the computer has out not to enter schools, since this is unavoidable but how technology has to be i...
متن کاملQuantum Physics and Computers
Recent theoretical results confirm that quantum theory provides the possibility of new ways of performing efficient calculations. The most striking example is the factoring problem. It has recently been shown that computers that exploit quantum features could factor large composite integers. This task is believed to be out of reach of classical computers as soon as the number of digits in the n...
متن کاملAppropriate teaching aids.
When health workers from a developing country visit a national or international "centre of excellence," they may feel frustrated rather than helped. They realise that they have no access to high technology books, journals, films, and slides, or to the new ideas on how to use them. This discovery may prompt doubts about their ability to do their work in the absence of such props. Some are tempte...
متن کاملMultimedia Support for Teaching Physics
The majority of the educational tools offer just a lot of facts, which are explained mostly by a text, rarely by some diagrams or simulations and only a few of them are interactive. We have created an interactive multimedia application, which simulates four experiments in physics and therefore can be used as a support for teaching physics. Our software has been developed using Macromedia Flash ...
متن کاملUsing Old Computers for Teaching Computer Science
The research on the history of computing often needs to adopt experimental archaeology methods: the rebuilding of old hardware and software requires to proceed by hypothesis and experimentation. This is one of the key assets of the HMR project, whose main goal is the study of Italian computers from the Fifties and Sixties. The results obtained by the HMR research are made accessible to the publ...
