Description

In 2007 a Faculty Technology Grant was awarded by the Office of the Provost, the Center for Teaching and Learning Excellence, and the Educational Technology Department of Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University (ERAU). The goal of the grant was to develop 8-10 experiments that could be used in an online physics class offered by the University. These experiments, designed to be performed totally online using the Internet, would introduce students to new instructional practices and involve them in an effective way in using the current technology. This paper is about the development of those experiments and how they have recently been incorporated into ERAU's Worldwide curriculum.
