Coach 7 vs EL CID

Coach 7 is a Learning and Authoring Environment designed for STEM Education. This version of Coach 7 is only suitable for users with a valid Coach 7 Tablet Site License. You can install the Coach 7 App for free but you need the License Code (not for free) to be able to work with it. Contact CMA to purchase the Site License. Coach 7 offers tools to measure with interfaces and sensors, to make video or image analysis, to create dynamical models, to process and analyse data, and to compare results of real measurements with results generated by models. Coach 7 is a highly useful tool, which can be used by teachers and students, in school, college and at home. Coach 7 Activities are fully compatible with activities made in Coach 7 on other platforms. No matter what the mix of technology is in the classroom or the school, all users share the same user experience. The Measurement Activities enable you to measure wireless (via Wi-Fi) with VinciLab via interface and sensors. Additionally this app allows working with an internal accelerometer. The Data Video Activities enable you to make measurements on digital video clips to analyze motion of objects and measurements on still images to analyze shapes of objects. Such Activities bring real world into your classroom and allow analyzing attractive events and experiments that are impossible to perform in the classroom. The Modeling Activities enable you to use ready-to-go models or to create models of dynamic changing systems. In such models the evolution of a system is computed step by step. Modeling allows solving realistic problems that are difficult to solve analytically. It helps students to understand the world of computational models; such models are used today in every area of research and industry. Key Features – General - Multilingual user interface - Tutorial Activities to learn how to work with Coach - Many ready-to-go CMA Activities available via the Download menu option - Sharing Activities with other Apps e.g. Mail Key Features – Measurement - Measure and record data via the VinciLab data-logger (wireless via Wi-Fi) and via an internal accelerometer - Time-base, Event-base and manual measurements - Automatic triggering of measurements - Sensor recognition - Sensor calibration Key Features – Video and Image Analysis - Capture a video/make a photo using the built-in camera, choose a video/photo from your Photo/Video Library, or use one of our Activities with an included video/image - Edit video - Track objects (up to 8 objects) manually or automatically - Correct perspective distortion - Connect the object(s) motion on the video display with graph(s) by using synchronized scanning. Key Features – System Dynamics Modeling - Create models of dynamically changing processes and systems - Three modeling modes present: Graphical (stocks and flows symbols), Equation (using the language of mathematics) and text using the easy to learn Coach programming language - Execute models and simulate the effect of different parameters - Compare the model results with the experiment results Key Features – Data Analysis - View collected or generated data in a table - Visualize data in real-time in customizable graphs, meters and values - Draw own graphs - make predictions - Analyze the data with various analysis tools

EL CID-INTRODUCTIEWEEK - LEIDSE ONDERWIJSINSTELLINGEN Ga je binnenkort studeren aan een van de Leidse onderwijsinstellingen? Dan nodigen we je uit om deel te nemen aan het introductieprogramma in Leiden: de EL CID-week! Tijdens deze week krijg je alle informatie die je nodig hebt om goed voorbereid te beginnen met studeren. In augustus organiseren we vijf dagen lang evenementen speciaal voor alle aankomend studenten in Leiden. Dit wordt een onvergetelijke start van je studententijd! Deze app helpt jou tijdens de EL CID Je kunt alleen deelnemen als aankomend student van een van de Leidse onderwijsinstellingen. Je krijgt via de e-mail een uitnodiging voor het deelnemen aan de EL CID. Nadat je je hebt aangemeld, krijg je toegang tot deze EL CID-app. Hierin vind je jouw persoonlijke programma en details over tijden en locaties. De app bevat ook nuttige informatie over jouw studie, de stad Leiden en het studentenleven. Alles om optimaal voorbereid te zijn.
