• PHYS231 aims to provide empirical and theoretical understanding on performing basic physical measurements, which are essential in physics. Starting from the basics of electronic circuits, emphasis will be made on how to obtain data precisely and accurately.
• Making use of analog and digital circuits is essential in performing measurements but it can be tedious to make them work. As this is not a course on electric circuits, to aid the process of learning, we will be making use of the National Instruments ELVIS II system and LabVIEW software. The NI ELVIS II and LabVIEW package will remove much of laborious tasks often associated with electrical circuitry and using measurement equipment.
• Students are expected to learn and become reasonably proficient in making physical measurements (such as, temperature, electrical currents, light power, etc), controlling and automating measurement processes by using a computer, LabVIEW software, etc.

Lab report (60) Attendance (15), Presentation (25)

Lab report는 국문 작성 권장 (영어가 중요한 것이 아니라 논리적인 글을 쓰는 연습이 필요함), 영문 작성도 가능

Lab report 각 20 점 만점으로 총 60점, 지각 레포트는 10 % deduction/day

실험 날 지각은 -1 point, 결석은 -2 point로 누적 (조교가 떠나는 오후 3시까지 오지 않으면 결석으로 처리)

발표 평가 시 고려요소: 발표 구성, 발표 자료의 완성도, 논리적인 전달, 핵심 물리 개념의 전달, 참고 이미지 및 자료에 대한 출처 표시 등
