Using Physics Demonstrations in Robeson Hall

Lecture Demonstration signup procedure:

1. Instructors are free to get out their own demonstrations from the storage areas in CHEMP 130A and ROB 206A for use in Robeson Hall. (See the demonstration area map for what is stored in each location). There is no deadline for requesting demonstrations that you are willing to get out for yourself but we ask that you still sign up on the demonstration website (http://www.phys.vt.edu/demo-bin/demoform.cgi) so that a log of demonstration usage can be kept. Just add in the comments that you will get it yourself. If you choose to get out your own demonstrations please place them on a cart when you are finished and returen them to CHEMP 130A or ROB 206A. The demonstration manager will reshelf them.

2. For instructors who would like to have their demonstration prepared by the demonstration manager please sign up for demonstrations by NOON on the day before they need to use them. Sign up is done at: http://www.phys.vt.edu/demo-bin/demoform.cgi. The demonstration manager will set up the demonstrations on carts in ROB 206A (the demonstration room beside the lecture hall ROB 210). For demonstrations that have been requested before noon on the day before, the demonstration will be set up by 4 PM. The equipment will be checked to verify that it is functioning properly. Thus, the demonstrations will be ready all that evening and the next day for practice by the instructor if they would like to do that. The instructor will need to pick up their demonstrations from ROB 206A before their class and return them when they are finished. The demonstration manager will reshelve the demonstrations after they are used. If instructors find that they need additional support in this area please contact Mark Pitt or Josh Peebles.
