Join Vernier staff scientist John Gastineau to explore our engaging video analysis tool that helps students investigate complex physics concepts in real life. From colliding carts to a basketball in flight, you’ll see how the Vernier Video Analysis^® app gives students the opportunity to measure more dynamic and larger scale motion than can be captured by a sensor. 

What you'll learn 

✔ How to use videos students record or find to explore real-world examples of projectile motion, one-dimensional elastic collisions, and energy in simple harmonic motion

✔ The key features, benefits, and capabilities of Vernier Video Analysis 

✔ Essential skills for using the app effectively, including how to import videos, track moving objects, set the scale for accurate measurements, and interpret the resulting graphs

✔ Intermediate-level features, such as marking multiple objects, finding center of mass motion, viewing vectors, and creating calculated columns for analysis

✔ Where to find additional resources to support your use of Vernier Video Analysis in the classroom
