The Computer as Lab Partner.
Nicklin, R. C.
Journal of College Science Teaching, v15 n1 p31-35 Sep-Oct 1985
Microcomputers can record laboratory measurements which human laboratory partners can never collect. Simple, harder, and general-purpose interfaces are discussed, with suggestions for several experiments involving an exercise bike, acceleration, and pendulums. Additional applications with pH meters, spectrophotometers, and chromatographs are also explained. (DH)
