ICT Activities with Coach 5
ePhys Materials
The teaching
materials created in the framework of ePhys project consists of activities
applying different ICT-based techniques such as measurement with sensors,
measurement on video clips, modeling activities and computer simulations.
These are exemplary activities to give an insight in how ICT can contribute
to teaching and learning Physics.
Coach 5
The materials
presented below are created in the authoring software Coach 5.
Coach 5 is an activity-based environment which integrates tools for on-line
and off-line measurements and control (with sensors and interfaces), measurements
on video clips, creating dynamical models, data processing and data analysis.
It is also authoring environment which gives opportunities to build a learning
environment with multimedia activities with texts, pictures, video clips,
measured data, models and links to Internet sites.

The Teacher
Guide and file to install Coach 5 with ePhys activities can be found below.
The Teacher Guide gives short descriptions of the activities and background
information. The Student Activities are available in the program after its
installation. The installed program is the limited student version of the
Coach 5 program. It allows opening and studying activities, processing measured
data, creating models, performing measurements on video clips. It does not
allow modifying, creating and saving activities and results.
