Introducing Computation: A Laboratory Approach
November 4, 2020 by Kevin Adkins & Jennifer BirrielIntroductory physics lectures are generally short on time and finding time to integrate computation isn't trivial. One alternative is to move the computational exercises to the laboratory portion of the course and replace a few traditional labs with computational labs covering the same material. Here, we describe our computational laboratory implementation and present two complete exercises.

Spreadsheet Computation in Introductory Physics Labs
July 24, 2020 by Jennifer Birriel & Ignacio BirrielIntegrating computation into first year physics courses can be a challenge, especially given the students' comfort with programming. One solution is to integrate spreadsheet computation in your labs for data reduction and analysis. You can connect the language of computation with common spreadsheet terminology. Computation with spreadsheets is advantageous because Excel is widely available.
