The setup files included with the Activity Based Physics High School e-dition are for Logger Pro software, and not for Graphical Analysis.
Purchase Activity Based Physics only if you are aware of the use intentions of this material.
The Activity Based Physics High School e‑dition (ABP-E) is a special pre-college edition of physics curricula from the Wiley Physics Suite, including selected units from RealTime Physics, Workshop Physics, and Interactive Lecture Demonstrations. Typically, a purchaser becomes aware of this product while attending a workshop or seminar led by one of the authors of the material.
While the student-facing materials do not make explicit reference to particular data-collection software, they do instruct students to open a particular file in order to complete the activity. The files included with the materials are for our Logger Pro software.
Logger Pro is legacy software that is no longer sold. It runs only on macOS and Windows. Logger Pro is only compatible with wired LabQuest sensors; in particular it is not compatible with our newer Go Direct sensors.
As a result, if you data-collection software is not Logger Pro, you will find the Activity Based Physics material is difficult to use, as there are only some of the setup files available for Graphical Analysis app.Â
Can the RealTime Physics labs be done using Vernier Graphical Analysis Pro?
