Peer reviewedLafleur, Mimi; Gurr, Fiona – Physics Teacher, 1974
Discusses teaching of two project experiments to nonscience students who were asked to measure the acceleration of a system any way they could and investigate any phenomena that they thought might follow a Poisson distribution. Indicates that physics learning performed outside the physics building is the experiment highlight. (CC)
