Connecting Experimental Uncertainty to Calculus and to Engineering Design

نویسندگان

چکیده

Experimental uncertainty and the epsilon-delta proof provide a rich example of thread that weaves together topics in introductory physics, calculus, engineering design. This presents an opportunity for deepening connection between calculus strengthening conceptual understanding both fields, expanding students’ experimental propagated error as constraints informing design experiment rather than simply unavoidable consequence some procedure. We discuss connections describe several activities help students explore thread.

iranian english learners’ perception and personality: a dual approach to investigating influential factors on willingness to communicate

abstract previous studies on willingness to communicate (wtc) have shown the influence of many individual or situational factors on students’ tendency to engage in classroom communication, in which wtc has been viewed either at the trait-level or situational level. however, due to the complexity of the notion of willingness to communicate, the present study suggests that these two strands are ...

hydrochlorothiazide detection in urine samples by hplc-dad and experimental design dispersive l-l microextraction

hydrochlorothiazide (hct) is a diuretic agent which is shown to be effective in the treatment of hypertension. literature reports have demonstrated that urinary excretion data may be used to assess the bioavailability of various formulations containing this thiazide. also hct consumption by the athletes is one of the drugs which should be regulated by world anti-doping agency (wada), because of...

Connecting Sustainability to the Design Process

This paper presents the finding of a research investigation into how sustainable objectives can be incorporated into a design brief. It is based upon the development and trial of a pack of Eco-Design Cards. The initiation of the research was a feeling that some of the strategies, tools and processes within Eco-Design are cumbersome and inappropriate. That is, they are data intensive and rely on...
