COMPUTER EMULATORS AND SIMULATORS OFMEASURING INSTRUMENTS ON THE PHYSICS LESSONS

Abstract

Prominent feature of educational physical experiment at the present stage is applications of computer equipment and special software – virtual measuring instruments. The purpose of this article – to explain, when by means of virtual instruments it is possible to lead real experience (they are emulators), and when – virtual (they are simulators). For the best understanding implementation of one laboratory experimentation with usage of the software of both types is given. As at learning physics advantage should be given to carrying out of natural experiment with learning the real phenomena and measuring of real physical quantities the most perspective examination of programs-emulators of measuring instruments for their further implantation in educational process sees.
