Detalhes do Documento
A cycle-ergonometer
Descrição
The ability to integrate, to reason and to operate in situations involving diverse and varied types of knowledge from typically “not related” fields – physics, biology, maths, chemistry, ergonomics…- in our education system it might surely be of utmost importance in a sound effective science education.The hands-on activity herein proposed intends to tackle this need of interdisciplinary through activities directly related and significant to our everyday life. We propose the study setting up and use of a digital cycle-ergometer. A cycle-ergonometer can be defined as bicycle that, in general, is kept stationary and to which are adapted instruments that allow measuring the physical effort developed during the pedalling process
