Popis: The recent use of Arduino Uno microcontroller boards for automated data acquisition has revolutionized physics education. The Arduino-based physics labs have dramatically lowered the cost of the experimental equipment, while at the same time replacing the commercial apparatus with open hardware and software. Students benefit greatly from rigorous technology-based labs that also nourish their curiosity and motivation to pursue STEM-based careers. In this article we describe the use of the DS18B20 digital temperature sensor in conjunction with an Arduino Uno board in order to explore Newton’s law of cooling.
