However, even these tools are sometimes costprohibitive and sometimes mask key teachable moments for students.In this paper, we present a series of experiments, activities, and tools that can be integrated intoany physics class that leverage an Arduino Uno, a low-cost, 8-bit microcontroller. The Arduinois built upon an open-source framework that encourages people from all communities to sharetheir designs, drawings, and code examples. One of the key advantages of Arduino is that it issimple. Arduino was originally conceived by a team at the Design Institute in Ivrea, Italy for useby a largely non-technical audience of “artists, designers and architects.” i The Arduino is asingle-board microcontroller

The prescriptions aim to steerstudents away from common novice approaches such as identifying the unknown and searchingfor an equation that contains it, or pattern matching based on superficial aspects of the physicalscenario.12, 15 Although details differ, the prescriptions generally consist of steps like these: 1. Using diagrams as needed, visualize and make sense of the physical situation conceptually/qualitatively. 2. Explicitly identity the relevant physics principles. 3. Using the insights from (1) and (2), write equation(s) that can be

At a PUI the engagement of students in research projects is mostly from theundergraduate ranks which is markedly different from research intensive university. The idea ofundergraduate research (UGR), if unfamiliar, may seem like a stretch, but Kuh​3​ and others​4-5have observed the positive effect of improved persistence in college courses generally and inSTEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) courses in particular, for thosestudents involved in UGR.This paper is in a series of reports about progress of high performance computing at UCO
