Tracker Online, Web EJS, and ComPADRE Tutorial
written by Wolfgang Christian, Mario Belloni, Aaron Titus, and Anne Cox
In this tutorial, we explore Tracker Online, Easy JavaScript Simulations (EJS) modeling, and the ComPADRE Digital Library. Unlike desktop Tracker and EJS, Tracker Online, and Web EJS are written in JavaScript, run in a browser, and do not require any software installation.  Participants should bring a laptop computer. All materials are browser-based and will be accessed from AAPT-ComPADRE.

At the conclusion of this tutorial, participants will be able to access and modify over 500 pre-packaged Tracker Experiments and EJS JavaScript simulations in the AAPT ComPADRE digital library.
