Description

The Raspberry Shake 1D is a low-cost, computerized seismograph that can be used very well to detect ground motions from earthquakes and everyday life. For physics teachers, the system is an excellent tool for teaching physics concepts and scientific methods in a highly motivating way. We will present some ideas for experiments and activities with the Raspberry Shake for students in schools as well as tasks for undergraduate students at universities.
