Enhancing Kinematics Understanding Through a Real-Time Graph-Based Motion Video Game
Mateo Dutra, Marcos Abreu, MartÃn Monteiro +4
Kinematics is a core topic in early physics courses, yet students often struggle to interpret motion and its graphical representations. To tackle these difficulties, we developed M…
Enhancing Kinematics Understanding through a Video Game Based on Real-Time Motion Graphs
Mateo Dutra, Marcos Abreu, MartÃn Monteiro +4
Interpreting kinematic graphs remains a significant challenge in physics education. The MissionMotion Project addresses this issue by providing a gamified physical-computational en…
Code in Motion: Integrating Computational Thinking with Kinematics Exploration
Mateo Dutra, Ãlvaro Suárez, Arturo C. Marti
Although physics has become increasingly computational, with computing even being considered the third pillar of physics, it is still not well integrated into physics education. Re…
Cooling of an objetct by forced convection
Mateo Dutra, Martin Monteiro, Arturo C. Marti
We present an experiment on forced convection where a previously heated object is cooled under the effect of a controlled stream of air. We consider a square copper plate in which…
