During my free time at the Deutsches Technikmuseum I visited the Science Center Spectrum. I personally enjoyed the Science Center Spectrum because all the exhibits were hands on. Also it allowed me to apply the information I learned in my physics and engineering classes in each exhibit in this building. One exhibit that that I applied my physics knowledge to was the concave mirror experiment. When I stood far away from the concave mirror my image was inverted or upside down. As I walked towards the concave mirror my image became virtual and upright.
The science center spectrum was a ton of fun. A lot of those hands-on demonstrations, including the concave mirror, were probably used as experiments to develop the modern concepts of physics, especially all of the demonstrations involving light.
ReplyDeleteI was originally looking for 3 people when I entered the science center but the problem was it was so much fun that I didn't want to leave. I ended up staying longer than I anticipated and went through each floor instead. I highly reccomened it for the following students.
ReplyDeleteThe hands on activities were a lot of fun. I agree that it made it easier to apply information that I already knew. I was also way more engrossed in the science center because it was hands on.
ReplyDeleteI loved the hands on expieremnets at the museum. That section was easily the best part of the miesuem. I learned many new things in the realm if physics that I would not have known if I didn't go to the science spectrum.
