Abstract

This paper describes a take home experiment kit that was developed at the University of Southern Queensland, Toowoomba to allow students with a variety of educational backgrounds and from different disciplines in a first year Physics subject to undertake the experiments outside of the laboratory at a place and time that suits each individual student(Turner and Parisi, 2008). This can be done by the students at any time at home in any town or country or any other place that suits the student
