  • types of classroom activities occurring in a science classroom. This tool can quickly and inexpensively measure the extent to which students are asked to work in groups, think independently, and actively engage in the learning process during class time. DART can take classroom recordings and with ~90% accuracy identify if and when a single voice (e.g., lecture), multiple voices (e.g., small group work), or no voices (e.g., silent thinking or writing) are occurring throughout a class session. PLU

  • library intended for both physics students and researchers wishing to perform OpenCL-accelerated numerical analysis, and is currently used primarily for the simulation of light. PhysiCL includes a Numpy-based code units system, a set of generic simulation tools, built-in tools for absorption-based and isotropic-based scattering, tools for measuring light behavior, and tools for writing new OpenCL-based simulation features.
