Physics App Selected as a 2017 Campus Technology Impact Award
When Colleen Countryman, Ph.D., applied for her first DELTA Grant in 2014, she was seeking assistance to develop a Physics app to increase her students’ understanding of the experiments. A DELTA team was organized to provide assistance in meeting Countryman’s learning objectives and to create the app.
The idea for the “Measurements using everydaY TECHnologies,” or MyTech App, came to Countryman when she noticed how much time it took students to learn the expensive equipment in the Physics labs. Saving money for her department and bringing better understanding to the students was key to her success.
