Development of an augmented reality mobile physics application to study electric circuits

Research goal of the paper is the demonstration of computer technology integration in the modern educational process of teaching ecologists in practical classes on assessing the quality of water in water bodies, containing mathematical calculations. The use of modern information computer technologies in education will effectively contribute to the acquisition of a range of knowledge and skills on methods for water quality assessing in the field of water use and protection of water resources. The ability to use ICT will provide the ecologists with the ability to respond quickly to changes in the environment and make effective decisions in environmental management in future production activities.

“…• Free access: the access is free that provides wide accessibility for teachers and students. Furthermore, the platforms as PhET, EdEra, iLearn, Virtual STEM-Centre of Junior Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, Learning.ua, Human.ua, Matific, LearningApps.org and others are appropriately used as interactive instruments for studying physics, mathematics and astronomy [27,[30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37]. The most popular among teachers is PhET Interactive Simulations which is a free educational Internet resource that contains more than 150 interactive simulations in different branches of science, in particular, physics, chemistry, biology and mathematics.…”

The development of students’ key competences and their scientific worldview is one of the significant tasks of secondary education. Understanding of the Universe, its objects, structure and research methods is an important part of natural and mathematic worldview. Problem-based learning is a relevant form for develop critical thinking during the study of these topics in the course of astronomy. In the conditions of distant learning this can be realized with the help of interactive online platforms whereas practical tasks can be realized through the use of simulators, mobile and computer applications. This will contribute the development of students’ key competences and practical skills. This research offers to emphasize the Universe study and interactive technology use in order to develop research, information and digital competences as well as competences in natural sciences and technologies.

“…One way to engage students in a classical physics course is to use smartphones to test or illustrate various concepts covered in lectures. Smartphones are increasingly used in higher education institutions during the study of mechanics [2][3][4][5][6], thermodynamics [7,8], electromagnetism [9,10], optics [11], as they provide a unique way of conducting a simple…”

Measuring Earth’s mean density using BYOD technology

BYOD (Bring your own devices) technologies are becoming more relevant in the educational process, when equipment that is “in the pocket” of a modern student is used in classes. BYOD technology becomes most effective if all students are provided with research equipments. But it is difficult to ensure such conditions in terms of distance learning during the war, the coronavirus pandemic, etc. In order to solve this problem, it is necessary to be able to develop laboratory installations that each student can make on his own. As an example of the implementation of this principle, the article considers a physical installation and a method of conducting laboratory work: “Measuring Earth’s mean density using BYOD technology”, which allows physics students, geodesists, surveyors to determine for themselves that the Earth has a heavy core. The purpose of this article is to show that a smartphone is a powerful measurement tool that, in combination with BYOD technology, increases student learning opportunities, namely: makes laboratory practice not too difficult; provides an opportunity to conduct experiments both in the laboratory and remotely. The main result of the work is proving the fact that the use of BYOD technology in combination with modern measuring tools – smartphones equipped with appropriate applications allows (to solve) the problem of distance learning of students. As it shown by the results of measuring the Earth’s mass and density using BYOD technology, the values are consistent with the known ones obtained with more difficult to use and expensive technique. Along with the values of mass and density, the student receives other characteristics of the Earth: the value and slope of the induction vector of its magnetic field. Exceeding of the Earth’s mean density, which is equal to 5676 kg/m3 according to the results of experiments; the density of the main rock-forming minerals in the Earth’s crust, which is in the range of 1900-3500 kg/m3, leads the student-researcher to think about the internal structure of the Earth.
