Abstract

The virtual lab project aim was to address the need for a hands-on component in sophomore engineering classes, without the cost-prohibitive physical laboratory. The success rate in engineering courses at this level is pretty low, and the idea was to improve the comprehension of the material studied to lead to a better success rate. Computer simulations of experiments were developed by an international team of faculty and students with a clear goal of making it affordable at different sites (only a laptop is needed), and user friendly, so that the user does not need an instructor to successfully run the lab. At our home institution, the virtual lab is conducted in the physical lab space to make it possible to demonstrate samples/equipment and concepts. Priority in development was given to experiments that are essential for the sophomores, and to those that are based on very expensive equipment (e.g. X-ray diffraction). The experiments were developed and implemented at several sites, and assessment data shows positive impact on student learning. Simulations are also used in recruiting trips, attracting high-school students to STEM. The lab is distributed free of charge to individuals and institutions around the world. Assessment of student learning compared the use of virtual lab, to that without any lab, and to one with a physical lab experience was conducted. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

26. A Programmed Aid for Analysis of Three-Element Optical Systems.

Abstract

A computer program has been written that outputs one of several sets of optical system parameters, while iterating one of the input parameters. The code can handle a system of one to three optical elements; these can be refracting or reflecting surfaces, or thin lenses. Output is available in tabular numerical form, as a graph, or both. Current subroutines provide: the system AFCD matrix and cardinal points; the location and magnification of the final image of the system; the separation of the elements needed to obtain a specific magnification and position of the final image; the powers of two of the elements required to obtain a specific magnification and position; and the power and position, of one of the elements, needed to obtain a specific magnification and position.
