Two opening activities to help students understand uncertainties in measurement
These activities engage students in simple measurements that help them to appreciate the reasons behind uncertainties, what uncertainties really represent and the thinking process behind estimating uncertainties as well as introduce the idea of error propagation. The measurements only require stopwatches and meter sticks. In the first activity, students measure the time it takes to walk across the room, and learn to nuances of estimating the uncertainty in the time measurement. They also learn
