These are pictures from the third visit to Udall Elementary. In this trip we measured and weighed the dried samples and compared them to students hypothesizes and our sensor readings.
Wii Remote Accelerometer Activity
Wii Remote Accelerometer Activity
This is one way that I incorporated sensory technology into my weight lifting classes at Wamego High School. We used Velcro to strap on a Wii remote to an Olympic bar in order to measure each student's acceleration while doing the bench press lift. We projected a graph of the accelerometer onto the ceiling of the weightroom, therefore, students could watch their acceleration and movements during the lift. The red represents the reps, the blue represents the left/right movement and the green represents the forward/backwards movement. It was a great experience for my weightlifting classes.
